Talk with Your Child About...
- Inflation- Beware! Using the Consumer Price Index Calculator, I showed them how our $2/week allowance in the 80s would be $4 a week in 2015.
- The choices you make when purchasing good and services, how you compare prices, and how you budget your family's money
- The perspective/point of view of the different characters in the book your child is reading
- How you use your bank/online banking system to track your money
- How your family "gives back" (We read stories in reading group about how people/businesses give back to their communities.)

On days that we have indoor lunch recess, I'll be allowing students to stay in the classroom to play board games (instead of going to the library to watch a movie). If it looks like it's going to be a day that we'll have indoor recess, feel free to have your child bring in some games to play. We did this last week, and the kids had a great time, and it was so fun to watch them play so well together. Please know that I am not the one making decisions about whether we go outside, so always send your child with warm layers to wear just in case.
