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.

Midweek update

 This week has gone so quickly with lots of excitement around the show. Today for the show tonight please have the children back between 5:30 and 6pm.  Please pick them up from Kakano any time after 7:15pm and before 7:30pm. Tomorrow for golden time the children could not decide on a PJ party, teddy bears picnic or hot chips, so we have decided to do all 3. The children can bring a teddy and their pajamas in their school bag (we will get changed after morning tea). Can they also bring a gold coin to go towards the hot chips.  They can also still order sausage sizzle and juicy or bring more lunch.  Have a wonderful holidays and enjoy your family time.
