£1 Challenge
Out shopping with just £1 to spend? Find three things that together cost less than £1, then work out the change.
Here is a challenge for the next time you are out shopping.
Imagine you have just £1 to spend.
Find three different things that you could buy which would all together still be less than that £1.
If you can, write down the prices or take a photograph of the three items so you can talk about them back in school.
If you bought all three items would you have any change left from the £1?
If so, how much?
