Money
Read, add and subtract money in decimal notation, and work out the change from a shop.
Your child writes money in decimal notation, with dollars on the left of the point and ten-cents and cents on the right. Your child finds how much more makes a whole dollar amount, adds and subtracts dollars and cents with the decimal points lined up, and solves shopping problems by finding the total cost first, then the change or the money left.
