Product information

Build confidence in handling and recording money in simulated real-life situations.


"Money Talks! was used in my Numeracy Hour for 40 minutes at a time, over four days. Children of different abilities had the chance to use the software and it matched the learning objective, which was to solve real life problems involving number. The children had the chance to try out all four activities on the CD and then printed out their answer sheets. They were highly motivated by the sheets with ticks showing where they had been successful." - TEEM (Read full review below)

Working with and recording money can difficult to teach. Pupils need lots of practice, and this is exactly what Money Talks! provides. In four simulated settings - At the Checkout, Shopping, Eating Out and Loot - they work with the language of money, whilst consolidating basic number skills.

A range of pre-set files linked to the Numeracy Strategy, attractive displays and easy customisation match Money Talks! to primary and lower secondary. Costs, totals, number of items bought or sold, currency, plus the level of on-screen help available, are just some of the variables which can be changed. It can even be set up as a test for assessing skills and identifying weaknesses.

Money Talks! is ideal for individuals and group demonstrations using interactive whiteboards. It keeps track of work done and can print an unlimited number of randomised worksheets at whatever difficulty level you want!

Works with £s, Euros & $ currencies!
