Look at my new money! Today I went to the bank to get some Kenya shillings. One US dollar is equal to about 68 Kenya shillings. So, today I bought a t-shirt for 930 Kenya shillings and a pair of earrings for 700 Kenya shillings. How much money did I spend?
(I’m asking you because I have no idea! It all seems like Monopoly money to me!)

About me
- Hi! My name is Shayne Russell, and I'm the Library Media Specialist at Kenneth R. Olson Middle School in Tabernacle, NJ. Come along with me on an adventure to Kenya, Africa! We will be working as volunteer researchers, side-by-side with scientists who are studying the endangered Grevy's Zebra. Let's see what research looks like... outside of the library!

A good time was had by all.
1 T-Shirt...$13.00, 1 pair of earrings...$10.00, chance to frolic with zebras...PRICELESS
My students and I solved this math problem on Friday. We thought you spent your money well. We check for new postings each morning and are enjoying learning about your adventure and the zebras. Can't wait for more!
