Mathematics Entry 1 - Functional Skills Lesson plan 5



Aim

To work with coins and notes in money problems

Learning Outcomes

At the end of the session, the learner will be able to:

• work with sums of money up to a total of £10

• work with coins up to a total of £1

• select smallest number of coins as change

• work with money in a practical situation involving counting, comparison, addition and subtraction

Aspiration

For learners to feel confident about working with money in problem solving involving counting, addition and subtraction

DIFFERENTIATION:

MUST participate in exercises (be able to find different costs and change)

SHOULD complete a money problem solving activity

COULD gain an understanding of how to select the fewest number of notes and coins in change and 100 p = £1

Resources:

Two worksheets: one of each for each learner

Mini whiteboards, marker pens and board rubbers
