Last year you counted small amounts. This year you go further:
- Count larger amounts with several coins and bills.
- Make change for any payment.
- Combine coins to make any amount.
- Use decimal notation (12.50 €).
- Solve money word problems.
Why money matters
Money is the most useful place a child meets numbers. Adding, subtracting, even decimals — all in real life. A grade-3er who can read a price tag, work out change, and not get cheated has maths and life skills.

- Counting larger amounts — coins + bills.
- Making change — what to give back.
- Decimal notation — 12.50 € = 12 € 50 cents.
