3 ways Matt can trade his 25 pennies
*#
8 you pretend to be Matt with 25 pennies and you want to trade with your child
(give them at least 6 nickels), ask them to count out nickels that equal 25¢ (answer: 5 nickels)
*#9
you pretend to be Matt again with 25 pennies and you want to trade with your
child (give them two quarters) for some quarters, ask them to count out enough
quarters to equal 25¢ (answer:
1 quarter)
*pretend
you are Matt with 25 pennies and you want to trade for some dimes and nickels (give
them 3 dimes and 4 nickels), ask them to count out enough dimes and nickels to
equal 25¢
(This
will be a challenge for some students.
If your child is struggling, start them out
with a dime 10¢.
Ask
what can we do next-try to lead them to 10¢ + 10¢ = 20¢.
Now
that they have 20¢, explain if they use another dime that will be 30¢ and that
is too much.
Ask
‘if you have 20¢ and I give you one nickel, what do you have?’)
(1
possible answer is: 2 dimes and 1 nickel, the book puts the nickel first, but I
explain that we will start with the dime and then do the nickels)
(**There
is more than one answer for #10, if your child is ready for a challenge- you
can see if they can make 25¢ another way.)
(possible
answers: 2 dimes and 1
nickel
1 dime and 3 nickels)
Extra
for fun: give your child dimes,
nickels and pennies and challenge them to come as many ways as they can think
of to make 25¢. This creates many different ways which will be a great activity
for students who finished question #10 quickly
We
have World Language Class with Mrs. Viganola today. Please check her blog for
her lesson.
RELIGION
*please
finish your Holy Thursday booklet
*color,
read, trace, and staple your Good Friday booklet
(this
does not have to be finished today-they can finish any time)
This
is a really good Beginners Bible called The Story of Easter.
It
explains everything from Palm Sunday through Ascension Thursday. If you have time
let your child watch this. This is a great way to celebrate Good Friday, Holy
Saturday, or even Easter Sunday.
