Rain...Snow...Sleet...GO AWAY!!

What is the saying?  "In Texas, if you don't like the weather, stick around it will change!"  Let's hope that only rain drops will be joining us later today!

We started our next unit in math on Monday, which covers time and money.  This week we will be focusing on money.  I introduced the kids to "Hairy Money". (see picture)
This is a strategy that I teach the students to count money by 5s.  Counting by 5s comes very natural to them.  Ask them to show you how it works.  Here is an example.
Our math homework is online this week.  There are a few tricky questions about making a dollar. Students really need to read the question carefully!  Have a great week!
