Maths

Monday 1) How much money is in each purse?

There is ____ pence

There is ____ pounds

There is £____ and ____ p

There is £___.____

There is ____ pence

There is ____ pounds

There is £____ and ____ p

There is £___.____

2) Complete the part whole models to show how many pounds and pence there are.

L.O. to recognise Ask a grown up if they can show you what our money looks like. Can you work out how many pennies each coin or note is worth? Why do you think we have so many coins? Wouldn’t it be easier to pay everything in pennies? When you have investigated, can you work out the following questions about money. Success Criteria:

-Remember the very important fact: £1=100p

-The decimal point goes in between the pound

and the pence. If we use the decimal point we don’t need to use the pence sign after (p) -Remember that it does not matter which direction the part whole model is positioned – two parts add together to make the whole

Tuesday 1) Convert these amounts to pounds and pence:

a. 357p b. 307p c. 57p d. 370p

2)

L.O. to convert When we go to the shops our shopping isn’t added up at the till into lots and lots of pennies. We exchange our pennies into pounds. So instead of saying 657 pence, we would say £6.57 as it is easier (Imagine having to carry 657 pennies around with you!) Can you convert the following amounts into how they should be shown? Success Criteria

-remember the very important fact: £1=100p -Use your knowledge of place value to help you

-Look carefully at the numbers whilst working out -Do you notice a pattern that might help you? -Do not forget to show your working out and reasoning - Don’t forget to use your symbols (£ - pounds or p – pence) If your amount is less than £1 use the p symbol. If your amount is more than £1 then use the £ sign. We don’t use the £ and p together.

Wednesday 1) 2) 3)

L.O. to compare Can you compare the two amounts of money and decide which is bigger (>), smaller (<) or the same (=) Success Criteria -Look carefully at the amounts -Use your knowledge of place value to help you -Use real coins or draw them out pictorially if it helps you -Do not forget to show your working out and reasoning
