With The Analogical Market, shopping becomes a playful way to learn about money and develop an intuitive understanding of mental arithmetic. The resource builds on something very familiar and engaging for children: learning to make small purchases and manage money independently. Following the principles of the Analogical Method, euros and cents allow children to explore quantities and operations without starting from abstract explanations – cents replace the traditional counters and help children build a clear mental representation of quantities.
Designed primarily for the first years of primary school, it can also be used for consolidation, additional practice and revision, as well as through play in early years settings.
