Hello Cambodian Learners!
Numbers are everywhere! You see them on clocks, on money (like Riel notes), on signs showing prices at Phsar Nat in Battambang, and in your school books. Today, we'll practice finding numbers quickly in English texts. This is another way to use your "scanning spotlight" eyes!
