Menus in Maths

This week, in maths, the children have practiced adding and subtracting decimal numbers and finding percentages of amounts in more fun way than usual. I gave the children a menu for a popular restaurant and asked them to price up their favourite meal. To develop on this, I then gave the children a discount to see if they could calculate their new bill with discount applied. Following this, they then did a brand new order for themselves and a friend or family member. The children really enjoyed doing this and all were successful in achieving the maths learning objective.
