Holly and Reuben makes a visit to the Shop
As part of Maths, Reuben and Holly is learning about money. This week, they have had an opportunity to use money in real life experiences with a visit to our local shop. They purchased milk for our thirsty staff members!
This is a fantastic way to get children to use money by buying items and receiving change. Don’t forget to collect the receipt to check if it is correct.
