Mrs. Barker's Grade Three Class

Hello Families! “Blogging” is a school wide project that is being taken on by the teachers at MMH school. We will cut down on the amount of paper that travels home with this cool, creative and interactive technology tool! There are links to great learning websites on the subject pages for your child. If at any time you have any suggestions of what you’d like to see on the blog, please let me know and we’ll see if we can make that happen! Here is my email address: corrina.barker@lethsd.ab.ca

Challenge Question - Oct 15th

I wonder who is a math genius!!!

Miss. Pickett wants to buy a new polar bear stuffy for her classroom. The polar bear stuffy costs $3.30. Miss. Pickett has 8 quarters, 6 dimes, and 7 nickels in her wallet. Does she have enough money to buy the polar bear stuffy?

Remember how much a quarter, dime and nickel are worth. Draw a picture to find your answer.

Good lucky crazy monkeys!
