Money · Grade 2

In Grade 2 you learn: dollars and cents; adding and subtracting amounts of money.

Money is counted in coins and notes. 100 pence make £1, and 100 cents make $1, €1 or R1. We add up prices, work out change, compare deals and plan budgets.

Key facts

  • £1 = 100p, $1 = 100¢, €1 = 100c, R1 = 100c.
  • To count coins, start with the biggest and count on.
  • Best value: work out the price of one item (or of 100 g) for each offer.
