Years 2 and 3 on their trip to Erevan Supermarket

Years 2 and 3 strengthen their understanding of addition and subtraction facts and the use of money on their trip to Erevan Supermarket.

Years 2 and 3 with their shopping

I went to Erevan to buy some necklace candy.  I had 2000 fcfa.  They gave me 1000 fcfa back.  I enjoyed my trip with my classmates, Ms. Fatme, Mrs. Carsky and Mr. Collins.  These were my teachers who came.

At Erevan I got a candy necklace, cheese chips box and some juice.  I learned how to use money. The register woman gave me back 50 fcfa.  My partner was Ivan.  I had fun with my classmates…and my teachers…and everyone else had fun at Erevan!

I enjoyed my trip with my teacher and my classmates because I learned how to use money, and I also loved going in the car.
