Shopping Spree

Students have recently been revising and learning a range of addition strategies. Year 4 practised these strategies by purchasing items from around the classroom... and they got some bargains!



What would you buy and what would be the most efficient strategy?

  2. I remember doing that last year! It was fun, and I hope the year 4's enjoyed it as much as I did! :)

  3. hat $2.85 + drink bottle $3.25 = $6.10
    I would use the split strategy.
    $2 + $3 = $5 80 + 20 = $1 5 + 5 = 10

    $5 + $1 + 10 = $6.10
