Money - Subtract Money - Starter

In a set of exercises aimed at Year 4 students during the Summer Term, Week 4, Day 1, the focus is on subtracting money and understanding the value of numbers in both numerals and words. The 'Fluent in Four - Revision' section presents a series of questions designed to reinforce the students' arithmetic skills. One task requires students to calculate the combined cost of two items: a windmill priced at £1 and 85p and a ball at £4 and 37p. They must determine the total cost and express the amount both numerically and in words. Additionally, the worksheet includes a place value activity where students complete stem sentences to identify the number of ones, tenths, and hundredths in given decimals, and then write the complete decimal represented.

The worksheet also challenges students with addition problems, such as adding hundreds and ones together to find a total, and provides space for them to write their answers. For example, they need to add 43 hundreds and 76 ones to 707 ones and eight tens and express the answer in both numerals and words. The exercises are designed to improve the students' understanding of the composition of numbers and their ability to perform basic calculations with money and decimals, which are essential skills in numeracy. The layout of the worksheet includes visual aids such as place value columns to help students organise their calculations and understand the structure of numbers more clearly.
