Maths activity
So simple... looking at a Target Toy Sale catalogue and the students are asked to got to a certain page and find the sale price of a particular toy. Then after a few of this type of question, they are asked to find out the saving (which is given under the sale price). It involved negotiating with a partner and sharing the catalogue, reading the name of the toy and the page number, then writing amounts in dollars. The kids loved it! This could be done with any catalogue as long as the descriptions are clear and they catch the interest of the students.

Have been introducing money recently and successfully used cut out grocery items from a **supermarket catalogue** together with **fake plastic money (coins)** for shopkeeper & customer role plays ~ very fun & popular activity! D

Hi guys, so I haven't really done many lessons yet, because we had planning days and excursions. But we have a really great integrated unit next term (the magic of wizardry) so I hope to have some great lessons for that :) Cheers Michelle
