Using money effectively is life skill that everyone needs. Over the new few weeks we will be practicing skills and discussing strategies to effectively count and represent money accurately. Today we worked on an anchor chart to share common strategies and tips related to how we count money. Many students shared the following strategies :
1. We organize our bills and coins into their own categories.
2. We count from biggest (bills and coins) to smallest.
