Money words, right where students can see them.
Nine Australian money word cards to build across your unit: coin, note, cents, dollars, price, total, change, cheapest and most expensive. Each card has a simple student-friendly meaning and a picture or example, so students can use the words when they talk about money.
What's included:
- How to Use page
- Money Words title card
- Nine word cards with meanings and examples
- Terms of Use
How it works:
- Print in colour, cut and laminate.
- Introduce a word or two each lesson.
