Money Exchange
Trade Your Coins for Toys
This lesson is the culminating and final lesson in our unit plan and is cross curricular in its
approach with Grade 2 Math - Number Sense and Numeration and Grade 2 ARTS - Visual Art.
The MATH component of this lesson will introduce the term Money Exchange and will first
focus on a class circle discussion on trading money for goods and supplies. The following
questions will be considered - Why do we have money?, How do we use money? Students
will develop an understanding of how money works and be able to operate with money as
they exchange artificial Canadian coins for supplies to make a wooden toy. Components for
each wooden toy will have a purchase price value and students will be required to add up
their total purchase price and calculate the change owed back to them.
The ART component of this lesson will focus on developing an understanding of elements of
design (line, shape/form, space, colour, texture, value) working on mixed media and students
will be required to show at least 2 elements of design on their finished toy project.
Specific Expectations
Quantity Relationships
• represent, compare, and order whole numbers to 100, including money amounts to 100¢,
using a variety of tools (ie. ten frames, base ten materials, coin manipula- tives, number
lines, hundreds charts and hundreds carpets)
• compose and decompose two-digit numbers in a variety of ways, using concrete materials
(ie. compose 37¢ using one quarter, one dime, and two pennies)
• estimate, count, and represent (using the ¢ symbol) the value of a collection of coins with a
maximum value of one dollar
Operational Sense
• add and subtract money amounts to 100¢, using a variety of tools (ie. concrete materials,
drawings) and strategies (ie. counting on, estimating, representing using symbols)
• line: horizontal, vertical, diagonal lines; lines that show motion (e.g., pointy, curvy); lines
inside shapes
• shape and form: symmetrical shapes and forms (e.g., shapes and forms in buildings)
• colour: secondary colours (various colours made by mixing equal amounts of primary
colours, such as violet, orange, green); mixing of colours with a limited palette
• texture: textures of familiar objects (e.g., rough tree bark, smooth plastic plate, ridged
corduroy fabric); illusion of texture (e.g., a rough texture created by patterns of lines);
impasto (thick, textured paint)
Specific Expectations
D1.2 demonstrate an understanding of composition, using principles of design to create
narrative art works or art works on a theme or topic
D1.4 use a variety of materials, tools, and techniques to respond to design challenges
• Mixed Media
• Painting
Students will be using coins from their piggy banks ($1) to purchase a woodworking project -
the options include a spinning top, a yo-yo or a Christmas ornament.
Each of the woodworking projects has associated price tags that correspond to the pieces
required to make that project. For example, the price tags for the Yo-Yo project are:
• 25 cents for one wood circle (students need 2 circles to complete this project)
Using addition students will calculate and record the total cost of their project and determine
through subtraction if any change is owed back to them.
Students are required to use at least 2 elements of design for their woodworking project and
will be given a specific checklist to assess and evaluate their learning.
