Description
Learning to count coins and money is so much more fun when you get to go shopping! With this math activity, students start with a certain amount to spend and can buy anything they want as long as they don't go over their budget.
To play, students choose items from the store and record the prices on their shopping list. When they are finished shopping, they add up all their purchases and and answer the question - Do you have enough?
You can also add play money and have students physically count out the coins to pay for their items. If you don't have play money to use along with this game, here is some you can print out: Free Printable Money for the Classroom
This activity can be completed by a single student or turned into a game with several students competing to see who ends up with the most money left over.
This money game is one of my students' favorite activities. It's very simple with no prep. There are several versions of the game boards, plus an editable version, so you can fully customize and differentiate this activity!
