A New Shop Opens in Room 5.

Thanks to Mr Boniface we have our very own shop to develop  financial literacy skills during Discovery Time.
This week the children have been learning to add up the cost of their goods and purchase them using $1 coins.


Silas had to pay $10 for his groceries. Cruz said he paid too much money and gave him back $1.I wonder how much money Silas gave Cruz?


Kayden said his groceries are going to cost him $5 because the biscuits are $2 and the margarine is $3.

The boys and girls in Room 5 love to shop!
Next week they will learn to substitute $1 for 2, 50 cent coins.
