Yarok Penny Drive!

Throughout the summer everyone brought in pennies for the penny drive! On Wednesday, we finally got to count how many pennies we all collected! It is a fun and educational experience to have the children guess how many pennies they thought we collected and then together we counted and saw who was close! Estimation and number sense are   good to start to develop at a young age and are concepts that will be further developed throughout their early school years. Additionally, it allowed us to talk about coins and how much they are each worth. 

Thank you to everyone for contributing to an educational experience as well as something for a good cause :) 

Also, thank you for a wonderful summer! I enjoyed getting to know all of you and your wonderful kids! 

Total we collected almost $5.00!
