New Coins School Resources

From 31 July 2006 the current New Zealand 50, 20, and 10 cent coins will be replaced with smaller and lighter coins, and the 5 cent coin will begin to be phased out. The coins will retain the same designs, and the 10 cent coin will be copper-coloured. The $1 and $2 coins will be unchanged.

This web site contains free resources for teachers and students. There is a variety of material to select from with activities suitable for junior primary through to intermediate school students.

The material is organised into sections: interactive computer coin games and five New Coin topics containing a variety of interesting and fun activities for students. Click on the menu above to view the sections and activities. There is an overview page which lists all the activities on one web page.

The activities include:

	single page exercises to download, photocopy and use as independent work for numeracy
	open ended maths problems to solve
	activities for an integrated unit of work
	activities introducing the new coins to junior primary students.
