Money

This week we started our study of money.  We began with an activity that allowed the children to investigate and observe the 4 different coins.  We then had fun making some rubbings of the different coins!!  


The sheets that I used I got from our State's Dept. of Ed web site that is password protected so I figured that sharing wouldn't be ok - so I made one for you! :)

You can find them HERE!

  2. Yay!! So glad!! My kids had such a good time with this. They each had a cup with the 4 different coins and I had them spread out all over the room on the floor. I saved the rubbing for last and they were so excited. I told them it was magic! So cute!!!

    Did your clipboard arrive yet?

  5. AHHH!!! We just finished money. But, the coin rubbings would be SO much fun for the kiddos that I'm going to have to do a Money Flashback and use your darling activities.

    LOVE your stuff!

  6. Did they do their own observations first and then discuss and record as a group the overall observations?
