We made a cafe in our imaginative area. We put in pretend food and even tomato sauce and mustard. We have a till and money to help us learn how to use money. We can have a turn at being the waitor or waitress and can write down orders for our customers. We have got menus for the customers to read. We have to change our special on the chalk board.
Caiden – I paid with a £2 coin.
Rhys – I can pay with £2.50
Ryan – I know how to take orders correctly and can ask what the customers want.
Eva – I have enjoyed playing the cafe.
Ewan – I know how to pay with a £5 note.
This sounds like a great café! Maybe it would be good to go on a visit to a café in Chryston and see what is in there? Let me know if you’d like this.
We think this sounds like a good idea. We would love to practise using money in a real cafe.
Would you like me to come to class and see if we can plan this?
