Making Patterns

Money, money, money!

Primary 1 and 2 have been very busy learning about money. They participated in lots of different activities: making amounts of money, cut and stick ordering activity, finding coins using the Beebot, online games and games on the interactive whiteboard. We also read the story of The Great Pet Sale and learnt a new song called ‘Money, money, what’s it for?’. Have a look at some of the pictures below and scroll to the bottom to hear our new song!
