Classroom Ideas

This clip can be used to inspire pupils to come up with some of their own, real life-based, ideas on what you can get with a £2 coin. For each, they can then be asked to calculate how much change they will receive. To follow on from this, pupils could be given a price list and role-play a shop keeper and a customer in pairs. They could then be asked to calculate the correct amounts of change in their heads, using toy money if possible.
