This was from last week – Thursday I think, somehow it got left as a draft and dnot posted, so here it is.
Yesterday SB emptied out her purse and counted up all the money. She did very well, did it pretty much all herself. Got bit lost with lots of 2p’s, until I showed her how to sort out the money into piles of 10p each and then count them all up. She had the grand total of ?19.01 (there was ?10 of xmas money in there). WSo she was quite excited by that
She has just sat down with a Vertbaudet catalogue looking at all the kiddy furniture, bedding and stuff, deciding what is too much, what she can afford, and whether or not it would be really owrth it spending all her money on it.
Excellent! Funny how money makes maths so interesting to them isn’t it…
Actually, SB finds maths interesting anyway and happily sits down with here Singapore maths books.
