Here are some photos from our shopping today. Good banking at Dolphin Bank and thank you to our armoured guards who escorted the money from the bank’s vault to the classroom this morning. 🙂

Shop Day – Money Maths
I love the way you spent your classroom money using good Money Maths to work out the coins you needed to pay for items, and how to give the right coins in change.
Everybody seems to be enjoying shopping in this slideshow. Enjoy!

Recently we held a trash and treasure Shop Day in Room 6. Students did a great job preparing, banking then working out money and change. You can see what fun we had in this slideshow.

Great job, happy shoppers! I hope you got your Christmas shopping done then too. 🙂 Mrs Veary
SHOP IN ROOM 6
On Friday our room was transformed into a shopping mall. Students set up their shops ready for business at the start of the day. We had everything from cars to robots, clever crafts to Beanie Kids, books to bangles, bags and soft toys on sale. Business was brisk and students found out that it’s important to be able to use maths in real life to make sure to pay with the right coins and receive the correct change. Enterprising retailers slashed their prices to half price and “buy one – get one free” as the final minutes of trading ticked by. Some students set up raffles and were amazed by the money they raised. But most of all – we all had SO MUCH FUN using our classroom money in real life maths!!
I was just so impressed with all of you on Friday – you went to a lot of trouble preparing for our shop and there was such a spirit of fun and co-operation in the room. Well done, everybody!!

JUNIOR FACTION SPORTS THIS THURSDAY
Not at our school!
Reminder to students and parents our Junior Faction Sports Carnival will be held THIS THURSDAY 24 SEPTEMBER from 9.00 to 11.00 a.m.
Parents are invited and students can come dressed in their faction colours! Remember to wear sensible running gear though.
Who are these people?
On Friday we will also be having another SHOP DAY where students can bring in unwanted toys to sell in our class shop, using our classroom money. This is a great way to share unwanted toys AND practise counting money and giving change!! Make sure to put price tags on your items and CHECK WITH MUM AND DAD first 😮
Our last week for the term – what a busy term it has been!
