Wants and Needs – Learning about Money in Year 2

Today in Maths we have been considering how we would spend our hard earned money! The children worked in groups to decide what would be a ‘want’ and what would be a ‘need’.

Then the children were given a budget of £1.50. They had to buy items for a packed lunch for a child who was going on a school visit.

They used column addition to work out the total and then were able to work out how much was left.

Article 12: You have the right to give your opinion, and for adults to listen and take it seriously.

Article 13: You have the right to find out things and share what you think with others, by talking, drawing, writing or in any other way unless it harms or offends other people.

Article 29: Your education should help you use and develop your talents and abilities. It should also help you learn to live peacefully, protect the environment and respect other people.
