Embrace-a-Family
On Friday we had a lengthy discussion on how to divide the money into a family of five, sales tax, and fairness. Students then met in groups to shop prices and deals on line for clothes and toys. Many students shared that it was the best math lesson! Real life application of math while helping a deserving military family.
Thank you to the parent helpers who will walk with us and help monitor students today.
Snack at Target: If your child would like to purchase a snack, they may bring a bag or envelope marked with their name. They are to hold on to this money. If you would rather bring your snack from home, you may do so.
