Math Mammoth Australian Money is a worktext that covers money-related topics usually encountered during the first three years of school. The book contains both textbook explanations and exercises, and is designed to be very easy to teach from, requiring very little teacher preparation.

The book starts with year 1 topics, such as counting coins with cent-amounts and easy problems about change. While these initial lessons use pictures for the coins, practising with real coins is, of course, even better, and you should have real or fake money on hand to practise with.

From there, the lessons advance toward year 2 and finally to year 3 topics, such as dealing with dollar amounts, and figuring out total amounts owed and change. Therefore, you can also let your child or student(s) work the pages of this book in different time periods, and not go through it all at once, depending on their current level.

The lesson Making Change explains two basic ways of working out the change: counting up and subtracting (working out the difference). This is all done with mental maths. The next lesson also practises solving money problems using mental maths. In the last lesson, students solve word problems by adding and subtracting money amounts vertically (in columns).

The digital download version (PDF) of this book is enabled for annotation. This means that if you prefer, the student can fill it in on a computer (with Adobe Reader) or on a tablet (requires a PDF app with annotation tools).
