For example
You need money to buy a patty and juice at the shop.
In Grade 1
Children handle real coins and notes, sorting them by value, before adding any amounts on paper.
Watch out for
Children often think the bigger coin is worth more. The value is printed on the coin and has nothing to do with its size.
Say it at home
Let your child hand over the money at the shop and name each coin as it goes.
