This week’s focus for maths is learning about money, today focusing on how much more money I need.

Choose a picture. If I have 5p, how much more money will I need?
If I have 10p, how much more money will I need?

Use coins. Start at 5 or 10 and then count out pennies/coins to make the amount.

Explore Hot Cross Buns – a traditional food eaten at Easter.

Learn the rhyme.

You could try Hot Cross Buns if you can find them- what do they taste like.
