As we no longer have pennies in our currency. Practice rounding up or down with numbers below.

• Amounts ending in 1 cents and 2 cents are rounded down to the nearest 10 cents
• Amounts ending in 3 cents and 4 cents are rounded up to the nearest 5 cents
• Amounts ending in 6 cents and 7 cents are rounded down to the nearest 5 cents
• Amounts ending in 8 cents and 9 cents are rounded up to the nearest 10 cents
• Amounts ending in 0 cent and 5 cents remain unchanged

Examples

• $5.76 would round up to $5.75
• 18 cents would round down to 20cents

What value would you round these numbers to? Would you round them up or down?

1. Langauge Arts: Silly Sentence Starters

In your Journal Write 3 questions you would ask a monster that is always crabby.

2. Mathematics: Financial Literacy

Option 1: Create a store.  In your home go find 5-10 objects that follow a theme for a store (for example toys, food, candy, toiletries, kitchen supplies/ utensils, stuffies and / or school supplies).

or 

Option 2: Create a restaurant with your family and use what you create (with food, paper or anything ADST related).

Build your restaurant/ store out of a blanket fort, cardboard or with your imagination (the possibilities are endless).

For option 1: Give those objects value by giving it a tag that includes the price of that object. Your child can create a tag to go on their selected object or can create a list similar to the image below.

Have your child select their value of the object based on their own level of skill. For example starting off with whole numbers or if you feel your child’s level of skip counting has developed to use numbers such as $5.25, $4.15 etc.

For option 2: Build a menu and give your meals/ food items prices

We will be using these objects and values for the next two activities on Thursday and Friday.
