Pay amounts and find totals of prices using coins - Problem-Solving Investigation - Year 1

Year 1 Money and Fractions: Pay amounts and find totals of prices using coins.

This in-depth maths investigation will develop maths meta-skills, and enable children to learn to think mathematically and articulate mathematical ideas.

In-depth Investigation: Mr Know it All
Children find out which amounts of money from 10 to 20p can be made using 10p, 5p, 2p, and 1p coins, using no more than one of each.

This problem-solving investigation is part of our Year 1 Money and Fractions block. Each Hamilton maths block contains a complete set of planning and resources to teach a term’s worth of objectives for one of the National Curriculum for England’s maths areas.
