Money Sense Building Worksheet
Help get ready for a mini-market! Use New Zealand dollars and cents. New Zealand no longer uses 5c coins. Show your thinking where you can.
Know your money
Look carefully at the amounts and think about which coins and notes could make them.
1.Which coin is worth the most? Choose one.
- 10c
- 20c
- 50c
2.Match each group of money to its total.
- Two $1 coins
- One $5 note
- Five 10c coins
- $5
- 50c
- $2
3.Put these amounts in order from smallest to largest: $2, 20c, $10, 50c. Write the amounts in order.
4.Tick every way that makes exactly $3.
- Three $1 coins
- One $2 coin and one $1 coin
- Six 50c coins
- One $5 note
At the mini-market
The stall has apples for $1 each, picture books for $4 each, and a kite for $6.
5.Ari buys one picture book for $4 and pays with a $5 note. How much change should Ari get?
6.Hana buys two apples. Each apple costs $1. How much does Hana pay altogether?
7.Levi has a $5 note and a $2 coin. Can Levi pay exactly for the $6 kite? Explain your answer.
8.You have $5 to spend. Choose items from the stall so you spend exactly $5. Write one possible shopping list.
9.Fill in the missing amount: $2 + = $5.
10.Make a mini-market plan: choose two or three stall items, work out the total, and say whether $10 is enough. Show your calculation.
