Last week Gr 1 students hosted their annual Grade 1 Mall! Students sold and bought various items for a few cents a piece. This activity gave the students the opportunity to apply what they learned in math class in a practical way. Their math study included coins, counting coins, values, and making change. It also gave them the opportunity to have fun and be creative! Included in the mall was even an arcade! It was a fun event for all the students!
