Money. . .money. . .money

We are learning about money!  We have learned the names of the coins and what they are worth.  We also learned how to make a different amounts of money in more than one way.  Then we practiced these skills by playing a game.  We had so much fun!

To play the game you need some dice, some markers and some money.  The object of the game is to get to the end of the board with the most money.  Each person starts with 50 cents.  As you roll the dice you move your man the number of spaces and then you have to follow what it says.









 Sometimes we were unlucky and had to pay 2 cents, sometimes we were lucky and earned money.  Sometimes we had to pay our partner a nickel!  We learned how to
trade coins for equal values of money.  It was a fun way to learn about money.
