The Ma monnaie series seeks to stimulate children's and students' prior knowledge of Canadian coins and bills. Are they all the same? How do we tell them apart? Let's follow the piggy bank on wheels to discover the different sizes and colours of Canadian coins. The episodes in this series provide the essential knowledge needed to explore Canadian coins with kindergarteners. In addition, Grade 1 students will learn to name Canadian coins and differentiate between them based on their appearance and monetary value. Ideal for introducing financial literacy concepts, this series offers a fun and light-hearted atmosphere. With the help of the questions found in each episode, the child or student learns to express themselves and to think critically. They learn to make connections between the coin, its value and the quantity required to make purchases. Finally, independent learning is practiced by drawing on previous experiences.
