Task 1 requires learners to decide on how much of their winnings they would gift, if any, to a charity and/or family and friends. This offers an effective platform for discussion around charities, generosity and their individual value of money. Task two requires the learner to select from a list of items and how they would spend the remaining money. They will write reasons for their choices and share with the rest of the group, which is a great opportunity for speaking and listening and finding common interests within the group. Task Three asks the learners to complete a shopping list and to include costs and keep a running total of their remaining balance. The final objective is to get as close to spending 1,000,000 as possible. Calculator use is down to the discretion of the Tutor and the ability of learners.

World Records This first resourse focuses on ‘Records set around the World’. Learners are tasked with estimating various measurements from the tallest to the heaviest, longest to shortest etc. They are then challenged to convert those amounts to an alternative form of measurement i.e. litre to pints, miles to Kilometres etc Time for a Holiday The second resouces starts with a warm up activity and tests the learner’s knowledge of Seaside towns in the UK and their locations. Great task to use on a SMART Board or in separate groups on A3 paper.

The final task involves budgeting a holiday to Newquay using a fictional scenario and an allowance of £650. Possible Extension Tasks Task 1 - Ask learners to find the location of other towns and activities. Task 2 - Extend questions to work out the Mean, Mode and Median. Task 3 - Limit Budget or change the scenario to make it more challenging. Reading Timetables This 3rd resource focuses on ‘Reading Timetables’.

The questions can be answered individually or collectively by cutting them into cards. The larger A3 versions (included) can be displayed and the group can carousel around the room.
