Just what my year 9/10 students needed to practice using a calculator, Thanks for sharing
Practice questions, homeworks and assessments
Shopping activity to get students used to using a calculator to obtain total prices. Give pairs a price list. Cut out & laminate the shopping lists and then students can swap cards once they have completed each one. Please leave a review if you find these resources useful.
