Elaborations
- • Elaboration investigating the relationship between dollars and cents, using physical or virtual materials to make different combinations of the same amount of money
- • Elaboration representing money amounts in different ways using knowledge of part-part-whole relationships; for example, knowing that \$1 is equal to 100 cents; representing \$1.85 as \$1 + 50c + 20c + 10c + 5c or 50c + 50c + 50c + 10c + 10c + 10c + 5c; when calculating change from buying an item for \$1.30 from \$2, starting from \$1.30 add 20c and 50c which gives \$2
- • Elaboration representing money values in multiple ways when role-playing money transactions; for example, using play money to represent the coins and dollars you could use to pay for items
