Today we are carrying on with working out the difference between different prices. This will be a practical maths lesson. Please take photos and send them in.

Create some labels and attach them to or put the next to some of your household objects. Print off / make / use real money to help.

(REMEMBER IF YOU’RE USING POUNDS, WRITE IT AS £1 and 50p rather than £1.50)

First of all, ask your child to match the price of the item with their coins. Can they identify the right coins? Can they thing of 2 ways to make the same amount?

Then, ask the children to choose 2 items. Can they work out the difference the prices? How about if they pick something to buy and you pick something to buy?
