Playing With Money

8th Agers have been having fun playing with money - play money, that is. They have been learning about the euro, the currency of seventeen countries that are part of the European Union. Euros come in paper and coin form. The paper euros are very colorful and come in different sizes and amounts. There are also one and two euro coins, as well as six other types of coins called cents.
Students have been practicing with play euros to pay for "food" that they order in class from various French menus.
