Billy was given
20c for emptying
the dishwasher .
“You must save
this coin,” said
his mum. “One
day, you might
need it.”
Jessica was given 20c for washing the car.
“You must save this coin,” said her dad.
“One day, you might need it.”
Jack was given 20c for
mowing the lawn. “You
must save this coin,”
said his grandma. “One
day, you might need it.”
Billy went to the shops
with his mum. He saw a
packet of lollies for 20c.
He looked at his coin
and thought, “Should I
spend this or keep this?”
He decided to keep his
money.
Jessica went to the shops with her dad. She saw a pair of earrings for 20c. She
looked at her coin and thought, “Should I spend this or keep this?” She
decided to keep her money.
Then Jack went to the shops with his grandma. He saw a toy
truck for 20c. He looked at his coin and thought, “Should I
spend this or keep this?” He decided to spend it.
Jack was playing with his truck and Jessica
and Billy joined in. They were having lots of
fun but then they heard some music.
It was the ice-
cream truck! “20c
special!” called out
the ice-cream man.
Jessica and Billy
ran outside to buy
an ice-cream..
Jessica and Billy
looked at their
coins.
“Do we really need an ice-cream?” asked Jessica.
Billy replied, “ No, but we might really need our
coins one day.”
Billy was given 20cents for
emptying the dishwasher.
“You must save this coin,”
said his mum. “One day
you might need it.” Billy
now had two coins.
Jessica got 20c for washing
her bed sheets. “You must
save this coin,” said her dad.
“One day you might need it.”
Jessica now had two coins.
Jack was given 20c for
mowing the lawn. “You
must save this coin,” said
his grandma. “You might
need it one day.” Jack only
had one coin.
