Many ways to make 50
Different coins can make the same money
The story
Otieno wants a KES 50 ruler and rubber set from the duka. He has only coins in his tin.
The big idea
You can make the same money in lots of ways. Five KES 10 coins make KES 50. So do two KES 20 coins and one KES 10 coin.
Ask at home
Give your child a handful of coins and ask them to make KES 50 in as many ways as they can.
The full lesson, with its questions and Kesho Stars, is in the myKesho kids app.
