4th Class Banking in Thousands

4th Class are revising their understanding of place value in the thousands. We worked in pairs in our little place value banks, and had to lodge €1000 cheques, €100 notes, €10 notes and €1 coins to make up certain figures. It was harder than it seemed to keep track of all our pretend money! You will also see a photo of our monster pictures - we had to use our quick mental maths to add up the simple sums on the monster and choose the correct colours for his scales. He definitely felt like a Hallowe'en monster at the end!
