This lesson aligns with the National Curriculum for Mathematics in Year 4, focusing on recognising and using different denominations of money, calculating total amounts, and giving change.
| Step Number | Step Title | Length | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Introduction | 5 mins | Begin with a brief discussion about money. Ask students what types of coins and notes they know. Explain the importance of money in daily life. |
| 2 | Identifying Money | 5 mins | Show examples of different coins and notes using play money. Discuss their values. Have students identify them in the classroom. |
| 3 | Calculating Totals | 10 mins | Provide each student with a set of play money. Ask them to create a total value using specified coins. Students will practice adding values together. |
| 4 | Understanding Change | 5 mins | Introduce the concept of making purchases and giving change. Model a simple transaction and ask students to calculate change. |
| 5 | Independent Practice | 5 mins | Distribute worksheets that include various problems involving addition, purchase scenarios, and giving change. Students complete tasks independently. |
| 6 | Review and Homework Assignment | 5 mins | Go over the worksheet answers as a class, correcting common mistakes. Assign homework involving real-world money problems. |
Students will be given a worksheet to complete at home where they will practice identifying coins and calculating totals for simple purchases. The homework will be checked in class without individual presentations to encourage participation and comfort.
Monitoring student participation during activities, the accuracy of worksheet answers, and understanding demonstrated during independent practice will inform the assessment of each student's grasp of the concepts taught.
