Valentine’s Day Life Skills: Mixed Money Math 3 Levels

Item description

Functional money skills such as counting and identifying money to make purchases are critical to successful daily living. Do your students need additional support identifying money, matching dollar amounts to currency and make purchases using the “next dollar up” method?

This No Prep Unit reinforces these skills with progressively harder tasks beginning with matching dollar to dollar, progressing on to matching prices with dollars, then using the next dollar up method to make a purchase. The currency is US dollars from $1 to $10. There 3 levels of learning with 10 cards per level!

This is an excellent resource for Middle or High School students with IEP Math or Money Goals, Transition to Work Students, or Elem students learning money skills.

It is a great addition to any math/ supported employment program or math center. These activities can also support Transition Plans!

This comprehensive money math unit works great for virtual learning, whole group learning, small group learning, as well as for homework.

NOTE:

*The Google Slides activity is BEST assigned/presented in PRESENT mode, as this allows the students to self-check their answer and keep practicing until they get it correct!

**You MUST be able to access/download/save to a Google Drive.**

* To Print Task Cards: The Task Cards, as downloaded, are 1/2 page which are great for students that need a larger size. To print 4×6 index card sized task cards, select “2 pages per sheet”. To print 3×5 index card sized task cards, select “4 pages per sheet”. These are not designed to print directly to index card template paper. What has worked best for my students was to print to on heavy duty card stock and laminate.
