You already know how to add pence and take pence away. Now you will use those same skills on money problems: working out the total cost of things, giving change, and finding out how much more you need.
Mia buys a sticker for 20p and a pencil for 15p. To find the total cost, she adds the two prices: 20 + 15 = 35p.
After you work out change, check it. Add the change back to the price you paid. If the total matches what you handed over, your answer is right.
Sam has 40p. He wants a toy car that costs 60p. He subtracts to find out how much more he needs: 60 - 40 = 20p more.
Add prices to find totals, subtract to find change, and subtract again to see how much more money you need.

Take away means subtract. Start with the whole group, then remove some. What is left is the answer.
Draw dots and cross out to see it. Count what is left. That check stops silly mistakes.
Properties of addition
Adding has helpful rules. Order does not change the total. So 3 plus 9 is the same as 9 plus 3.
Grouping helps too. You can add 2 plus 3 first, then add 4. The total stays the same however you group.

Whole numbers count things. Zero, one, two and on. Each step adds one more.
Order them on a line. Smaller numbers sit left, larger sit right. You can compare by seeing which sits further right.
