TTS White Rose Maths Pre-Money Counters Online

Develop children’s understanding of ‘unitising’ with this set of White Rose Maths Pre-Money Counters.

• As part of the White Rose Scheme, children are introduced to the idea that groups containing or representing the same number of things can be treated as ones.

• One item does not need to represent a value of one – this is called “unitising”. For example, A 5 pence coin represents five 1 pence coins. Pre-money counters are used to support children’s understanding.

• These counters are all the same size and colour and have dots on one side to represent their value. This helps children to see the value (cardinality) before they move on to coins where the value is not shown as a visual. By using objects that are the same size and colour, the focus is on exploring the different values that one counter can represent. This supports children to then understand that the value of coins is independent of size, shape, mass or colour. Please refer to the downloadable .pdf (below) to see where this resource fits in with the White Rose Maths scheme, along with guidance and a range of activity ideas.
