Worksheet Overview

This activity is all about recognising different coins.

 

The coins below show one of each type that we use in the UK.

 

Add up these coins. Write the value in pounds. Then write the value in pence. 

 

Example

 

2 pound coinOne pound coin 

50 pence coin 20 pence coin 10 pence coin 5 pence coin2 pence coin1 pence coin 

 

£2 + £1 = £3

50p + 20p + 10p + 5p + 2p + 1p = 88p

 

Total in pounds and pence = £3 and 88p or £3.88

Total in pence = 388p

 

Are you familiar with these coins? If not, ask an adult to let you have a look at some actual coins so that you can get used to the size, shape and colour of each type.

 

After that, you'll be ready to have a go at the questions!
