A window through the walls of our classroom. This is an interactive learning ecology for students and parents in my Consumer Math 20S class. This ongoing dialogue is as rich as YOU make it. Visit often and post your comments freely.

Check out the sidebar ... waaaayyyyy down at the bottom ... under the Chatbox. You'll see we have a new Feed Window to our sister class here at DMCI. Mrs. Armstrong's Consumer Math 20S class also has a blog. Mrs. Armstrong and I sometimes publish similar links for our students. If you click on any links in this window it will take you to that post on their class blog. Better than that, every time they publish something new on their blog we get a link to it automatically on ours ... check them out, drop in and say "Hi!" to them on some of their posts.
All of us know much more than any of us. Learning is a conversation ... let's get something started right here! ;-)
We've been working with money a lot in our class. This game may be helpful for you with your mental math and in life in general.
If you look closely at the picture below, you will see that I bought something that cost $90.83 and paid with a $1000.00 bill. I wanted to make sure the sales person gave me the right change. They had to give me 9 $100.00 bills, 1 $5.00 bill, 2 $2.00 coins, a dime, a nickel and two pennies.
Click on the picture to begin playing yourself and watch your mental math scores soar!
A special thank you goes out to our mentor Lani. In a comment on Jenna's scribe post she shared a great site with us all about how to write a personal cheque. Click the pic to check it out. ;-)
