Topic Thursday
Today we are going to learn all about money 💰💵.
-
We need money so we can pay for things. Can you think of any things you have bought using money?
-
There are lots of different ways we can pay for items. We can use coins, notes or a credit/debit card. Look at these coins…
Warm Up:
-
Go on a coin hunt! Look around the house to see if you can find any coins. Ask a grown up to help you. When you have finished talk about the coins you have found 💰
-
Put your coins in order, starting with the smallest VALUE (not the smallest size). Can you add any of the coins together?
-
Watch this short sing along video that tells us about the coins 1p, 2p, 5p and 10p
Main Activity:

Have a look at the money jars below. Can you work out how much money is in each jar? If you have any coins at home you can use these to lay out the amounts shown on the sheet
Extra Challenge
