ChatGTP ideas for supporting numeracy, extension exercises, homework, extras for anyone struggling, etc.
I am chatting to ChatGPT:
ME: Can you create maths worksheets for primary school?
ME: Money problems up to £5

Certainly! Here are some money problems for primary school students, involving amounts up to £5:

  1. Tom has 3 one-pound coins and 2 fifty-pence coins. How much money does he have in total?
  2. Sarah bought a toy that cost £2.50. She gave the shopkeeper a five-pound note. How much change did she receive?
  3. Jack has a £2 coin and 3 twenty-pence coins. How much money does he have in total?
  4. Emma wants to buy a candy bar that costs £1.20. She has two one-pound coins. How much more money does she need?
  5. Ben has 4 ten-pence coins and 5 twenty-pence coins. How much money does he have in total?
  6. Lisa has £4. She wants to buy a book that costs £3.60. How much money will she have left after buying the book?
  7. Peter has 2 two-pound coins and 4 fifty-pence coins. How much money does he have in total?
  8. Rachel wants to buy a toy that costs £4. She has a five-pound note. How much change will she receive?
  9. Mark has 3 one-pound coins and 5 twenty-pence coins. How much money does he have in total?
  10. Amy has £3. She wants to buy a pencil that costs £1.50. How much money will she have left after buying the pencil?

Feel free to mix and match these problems or modify them according to your requirements.

So with the simplest of prompts, which can obviously be far more focused (ideas for a particular need for one child, for example) an instant set of ten questions similar to these that were created in less than 1 minute can be created and used in class. ChatGTP ideas for supporting numeracy can be harnessed and quickly called on as an extra teaching resource. ChatGTP is just one of a huge number of AI apps that may be useful.
