Penny Store

This week we learned how to count groups of pennies.  We also earned pennies each day we came to school and extra pennies if we earned a purple for our behavior.  The students saved their pennies each day and were able to go to the penny store on Friday.  They had to count their pennies for me and "purchase" their item.  They had FUN!  Here are some pictures from the store.

What do these two pictures have in common?

This week we learned how to identify the penny and the nickel.  We also did an experiment to learn what product would clean a penny the best; water, salt or ketchup.  Guess which won!  Ask your child about the fun!
