Dealing With Money — Interactive Lesson (Year 7)

Real money problems rarely arrive as a tidy sum — they come as change, discounts and totals that need working out on the spot. This dealing with money lesson, built as a 26-slide interactive lesson, gives KS3 students focused practice on real-life money calculations.

Students calculate totals, work out change, and solve real-life money problems involving decimals, with instant self-marking feedback throughout.
