We are developing the awareness of money.

“Mummy uses money to buy carrots, chicken nuggets and broccoli.”  Isla (Green A.M)

“If you go to shops you have to pay the shop money. Money is made of metal.” Ramona (Green A.M)

“You need money to pay if you don’t you will go to jail.” Rebecca (Blue A.M)

“Daddy has money in his pocket.” Chloe (Green A.M)

“You get money from the bank.” Ailsa (Blue A.M)

We went a trip to our local shops.

We had to get money to buy our messages.

Then we had to find the right shop! Is this where we buy fruit and vegetables for our soup and fruit/vegetable kebabs?

The children helped find the ingredients we needed from our shopping lists that we had done in nursery.

We all had pennies to pay.

 

When we came back from the shops we made homemade soup and vegetable kebabs.

We had real money in our role play shop. We were learning about different pennies and played a matching game.

It was tricky to match the coins.

We made coin rubbings.
