teaching with money

Money can be really hard to teach! The concept of adding with coins and notes can be quite tricky for students, especially those younger ones that are only just starting to work with money. We were fortunate enough to have ASB bank come in and do their Get Wise programme at our school this term, helping make teaching money fun, exciting and easy! From that, I worked on some fun activities to help teach concepts of money to my students and also to get them engaged and wanting to learn.

This money pack I designed was to incorporate different ways of practicing money related activities like counting, sorting, using it in games and being more interactive.
​

I have trialled all the activities in my class with my Year 1/2's, and they love all of them.
Lets show you the activities within the pack! You can check it out on my Teachers Pay Teachers Store here.

​My Piggy Bank
This game incorporates collecting money, adding money and then counting the total in the piggy bank at the end of the game. There are times to double your money, times to get another turn, times to return all your money to the bank and miss a turn. This game is fun and easy to follow with students using the visual representations of money as the cue.

Match the money together
This worksheet puts into practice matching physical amounts and written amounts together. Students work out how much is pictured, cut it out and glue it under the right amount. Worksheets for this come in mixed coin, silver and bronze coin, or gold coins. This is to help target which area of money you may be looking at. ​

My piggy bank bingo
This activity is like usual bingo but with piggy banks! Students get a playing board and put the money note cards in a pile. This game can be played whole class, groups or with buddies. Students can take turns pulling a note money and seeing whether they have that on their piggy bank in front of them. The winner is the person with all their piggy banks covered! ​

Match the piggy banks to the amount
This activity is for students to practice matching a written amount to a visual amount of money. Students place the cards on their working space, work out the visual amounts of money and find the corresponding money note card. ​

​Can you sort the coins?
This activity is a great introduction to working with coins. Print these coin boards out and give students a bunch of coins. Students just sort the coins into the right piggy bank! Super fun especially when is it made into a race!

Alongside these resources, there are some others that I have created that interweave amongst it.
This resource is awesome for having students explore using money and purchasing food. This good work into a shop unit that you might have in class, or just to make some real life connections between money and items.
There are three ways to use this resource:
1. use money to create an item of food
2. use money to add 3 items of food together and write the total at the end
3. use money to add the total of the items on the shopping list.
This resource is available on my Teachers Pay Teachers page, check it out here.

Show me the money! A new resource added to my Teachers Pay Teachers store today! This one involves QR codes, getting the students engaged with digital technology also.
Print off the recording sheet and QR codes. Place the QR codes anywhere in the room and have students scan them. Once scanned, students figure out the amount of money on the piggy bank and write it on the recording sheet! So fun and easy to use!
This resource is available on my Teachers Pay Teachers page, check it out here!
Love to hear your feedback! If you have any ideas to be added to the pack too then also let me know! Email me info@mrspriestleyict.com
