Money Target Boards

KS2Gems has crafted an engaging educational tool for Year 3 students to sharpen their maths skills with Money Target Boards. These boards are designed to help children practice adding and subtracting amounts of money and giving change in practical scenarios that involve both pounds (£) and pence (p). The objective is to provide a real-world context in which students can apply their mathematical knowledge, making the learning process both relevant and enjoyable.

The versatility of Money Target Boards makes them an excellent resource for both whole class engagement and small group activities. They can be displayed for everyone to see while children use whiteboards and pens to work out various calculations. Teachers can easily tailor the difficulty level to suit different groups by providing specific instructions. For instance, a teacher might challenge the pupils to find three amounts on the board that total less than one pound. This interactive and dynamic approach to learning maths ensures that children can practice a wide range of skills in a fun and focused manner, reinforcing their understanding of money in everyday situations.
