Blop our visiting alien in Ash Class this week was a little puzzled about how to spend money here on Earth. Luckily Ash Class knew quite a lot about the amount each coin was worth and helped him work out how many different coins he could use to make up 1 pound.
We also learnt how to use a carroll diagram to sort the coins into different groups which was quite tricky but we managed it in the end.
Let's hope that Blop manages to get to the shops tomorrow without a problem. He was going to spend 100 pounds on sweets but we told him that was way too much. Then he said he would just take 1 penny but we told him he wouldn't get anything for that . . . fingers crossed he has a successful shopping trip after all his helpful tips from us!
