Can you describe a 5p coin?

What is the same and what is different between

a 10p coin and a 50p coin?

Which coins are round?

Which coin is smaller than a 1p coin?

 Fluency
Complete the table.

True False

There are 3 silver coins. 

A 1p coin is bigger than a 10p coin. 
A 50p coin is bigger than a 20p coin. 
There are less bronze coins than silver. 
The coin with the largest value is £1. 
 Reasoning
Look at the coins below.

Can you describe them? What is the same? What is different?

Match the equal amounts.
Which amounts are equal to 15p?
Which amounts are equal to 35p?
Which amounts are equal to £1 and 50p?
 The two amounts below are equal.

Is Tam correct? Explain your answer.

Amount A shows 56p. Amount B shows 46p.
 Problem
solving

There are double the amount of coins with even values than
coins with odd values.

Investigate this for coins below £1.

Yes, there are 4 coins with even values and 2 coins with odd values.

Odd coins: 1p, 5p.

Even coins: 2p, 10p, 20p, 50p.

Can you describe them? What is the same? What is different?

 Do I have more than £15?

Yes, Dom has £20 in total.

Who has the most money? Explain how you know.

Kat has the most as she has £20. Mo only has £15.

Use coins on your table to make the following amounts:

9p 18p 59p

42p 75p £1 and 15p

Did you use the fewest amount of coins?

 Problem
solving
How many different ways can you make 5p?
List all the combinations.

5x 1p coins

2p coin and 3x 1p coins

2x 2p coins and a 1p coin

 Fluency
Practical:
Choose two amount cards and compare them using > , < or =.
 Reasoning

If you find the total of three different coins they will

always give an odd total.

Always, sometimes or never?

Sometimes.

1p + 2p + 5p = 8p (even)

2p + 5p + 10p = 17p (odd)

 Problem
solving
List the fewest amount of coins you can use to make the following
amounts?

66p 49p £1 and 8p

50p, 10p, 20p, 20p, 5p, £1, 5p,

5p, 1p 2p, 2p 2p, 1p
