Money Madness in Year 1!

This week in Year 1 the children have been pretending to be shop keepers, learning about British coins and their value. We looked at some real British coins and notes, and the children looked at how they differ in colour, shape and size. Most of the children were shocked to learn that you would need 100 1pence pieces to make £1!

Year 1 used their Connection Finding skills to think about which coins they could use to make different amounts, often counting in 2s, 5s or 10s. They could also think of different ways to make the same amount.

Year 1 have really enjoyed pretending to be shop keepers this week!
