Grade 2, Unit 14: Financial Literacy (Ontario Mathematics)

The Grade 2, Unit 14: Financial Literacy resource is designed to introduce students to representing money amounts with coins up to 200 cents and with $1 and $2 coins as well as $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100 bills to $200. This resource features 9 lessons that are based on the 2020 Ontario Mathematics curriculum. Each lesson features an activity and an assessment that can be used to gauge student understanding.

Through this unit, students work on meeting the following curriculum expectations:

• F1.1: Identify different ways of representing the same amount of money up to Canadian 200¢ using various combinations of coins, and up to $200 using various combinations of $1 and $2 coins and $5, $10, $20, $50, and $100 bills

Please note that the images in this resource are not realistic due to copyright reasons. The images are clipart. The sizes of the coins vary between the activity pages and the demonstration images. The demonstration images (e.g., discussion posters or coin posters) are not to actual size for the coins so that students can see the coins from a distance.

Please note this is a printable resource. There is NO Google Slide component to this resource.

Overview of the Skills:

The first lesson of this lesson reviews the coins and bills students have learned about in Grade 1. A pre-assessment is included in this resource to review what students have learned from Grade 1. Students develop the following understanding:

• There are a variety of ways to represent the same amount of money
• There are various strategies to determine the different ways to represent the same amount of money
• Skip-counting skills are needed when representing various amounts of money and counting various amounts of money

How the Resource is Divided:

This resource is made up of five sections.

Section 1: Unit and Lesson Overviews

This section will find the unit overview with the lesson title and focus of each lesson and how the Ontario Mathematics curriculum aligns with each lesson (specific expectations only).

Section 2: Lessons and Activities

This section makes up the bulk of the pages in the resource. Here you will find the lessons you need for the unit as well as the materials required for each lesson. Each lesson is followed by any additional materials such as activity pages, gameboards, whole-group instruction pieces that are needed to carry out the specific lesson.

Section 3: Additional Activities

This section is filled with additional practice activities and problems for students to solve. These activities are print and go, which means there is no prep needed (unless there are some cut and paste activities).

Section 4: Teacher Assessment Pieces

This section comprises assessment trackers you can use to see how students are progressing towards meeting the specific and overall expectations outlined in the math curriculum. These assessment trackers are intended to be used one-on-one.

Section 5: Answer Keys

This section contains answer keys for most of the activities found in the resource. Some activities do not have an answer key as there is no one right answer, or it is dependent on the number the student chooses to work with for the activity.
