Money Maths

-

 This week we ran the Principal of the Day raffle.  Kakano 6 then had the job of sorting and counting the money.  Everyone helped group the notes and coins into the same denominations.  We then used our counting skills to make groups of $10.  We learned 10 $1 coins makes $10,  5 $2 coins make $10, we had to skip count this 2,4,6,8,10 and worked out that 2 50cent coins make $1, so we needed 20 to make $10.
