Materials

  • These supplied stage cards

  • Scrap paper and pencil; oral/pointing response where appropriate

Sequence

  • Read readiness and decide on support without treating prerequisite authoring as learner readiness.

  • Open Show first and explain its model.

  • Use Guided Try with support and its separate adult key.

  • Close Show and guided keys before Try, unless this Try is explicitly supported.

  • Reflect on an actual attempt, including help used.

No Printer

Use the supplied screen cards; copying the exact task to paper is optional, not required.

Privacy

Use only invented scenarios and optional anonymous local notes. Do not request names, photos, family finances, medical data, accounts or uploads. Stop uncomfortable physical activity.

Use the complete materials on screen or print only the current sheet. Keep adult guidance out of learner view.

Check understanding

  • Set a realistic savings goal and calculate how long it would take saving a fixed amount each week
  • Create a simple financial plan for a specific purpose (birthday party, school trip, gift)
  • Explain why planning ahead with money is better than spending everything as it comes in
“If your child wanted to save up for something costing £30, could they work out a realistic plan for how long it would take?”
