Teacher-facing plan: I do · We do · You do.

Mae waving.

Set up the Hollow's bush stall. Model paying for a $3.45 cake with a $5 coin and finding change by counting on: $3.45 → $3.50 (+5c) → $4.00 (+50c) → $5.00 (+$1) = $1.55.

Together 1. A $2.30 drink paid with $5 — find the change by counting on.

Together 2. Round $4.62 and $4.68 to the nearest five cents.
