“This week we started an activity called dollar words. Dollar word are from the book called Because of Mr.Terupt. How they work is that for example a word would be .001 cent and Z would be.26 cents so choose a word like mushroom and then you see what each letter is worth. Then, you add up the numbers and you see if it’s a dollar word. So far we have six dollar words. I got two of them. We have Grammy, telephone, Wednesday, stool, explodes and twisted. It’s tons of fun and I hope to keep doing it.”-Kelley
