Week 27. Author: Cristopher Halagao Mar and Kit go to the market with their mother and father. They go to the wet section to buy fish and meat. They also visit the dry goods section to buy fruits and vegetables. When they have finished shopping for food, Mar and Kit’s parents ask them what else they need to buy. Their mother gives them money and lets them decide what to use it for. They walk around the market and see things they want to buy with their money. Mar wants to buy a pet, get new clothes, shoes and toys while Kit wants to buy sweets and accessories. They counted their money to see if they have enough to buy all the things they want to buy and realize that it’s not what they have is not enough. They then come to realize that they really do not need the things they want to buy. In the end, Mar and Kit decide to use half of the money to buy crayons which they need for school but do not have yet. They save the rest of their money in their coin banks at home. 2017 by U.S.Agency for International Development (USAID) Produced for the Department of Education under the USAID Basa Pilipinas Activity Basa Pilipinas is USAID/Philippines’ flagship basic education activity in support of the Philippine Government’s early grade reading program.
