Today's Lesson
What to Get Ready
The following lessons are based on British currency. You may wish to teach your student about your local currency alongside these lessons. Please note, however, that the assignments will assess their understanding of money using British pence (p).
If you do not have access to British coins, print out the 📄 British Coins document which you can find in the General Resources. You can then cut out pictures of the coins you need.
Introduction
Before you start the lesson, watch this Recap Video with your student.
Main Activity
Your student should spend some time over the next two lessons completing tasks from the 📄 Money Practice Worksheets
- Money place value sheet 1
- Money place value sheet 2
- Which coin?
- At the toy shop sheet 1
- At the toy shop sheet 2
- At the toy shop sheet 3
The sheets start off easier and get harder. Use these tasks as a chance to see how well your student is working independently, and how well they can use and apply their understanding.
If you feel one sheet is too easy for your student, work down the list of sheets accordingly.
If your student is struggling with the easier sheets, revisit some of the learning tasks from this step’s Lessons 1, 2 and 3.
Workbook
To help your student build upon their learning from today, please ask them to complete the activities on pages 59 and 60 of Abacus Workbook 2.
