LA CASA DE LA MONEDA
Yesterday was so much fun!
I went with my barrio group from the Language and Culture program to La Casa de la Moneda.
Students were so impressed to see how much precision and time is required to make coins and bills. There are so many processes involved in it!
It was also interesting to learn about the history of money. We learnt that humans have been using different sorts of objets to represent money since ancient times (they even used stones and shells).
Students took a picture of their favourite objects in the museum.
See you soon!
