Financial Mathematics in IB MYP Grade 2 Mathematics
In IB MYP Grade 2 Mathematics, Financial Mathematics gives developing learners (ages 12–13) the chance to practise understanding coins and simple money values, adding and comparing amounts of money and calculating simple interest and budgets.
MYP Mathematics is assessed against four criteria (A: knowing and understanding, B: investigating patterns, C: communicating and D: applying mathematics in real-world contexts). Regular practice with financial mathematics builds the knowledge and skills those criteria reward.
What learners practise
- Understanding coins and simple money values
- Adding and comparing amounts of money
- Calculating simple interest and budgets
For students
Work through the worksheets, practice questions and revision resources at your own pace. Check your answers, then redo anything that felt tricky and explain each answer in your own words.
For revision
Use these resources for homework, end-of-unit revision and catching up on anything missed in class.
For teachers
Use financial mathematics activities as a starter, homework or retrieval practice, and mix free and premium resources to differentiate.
Show every step of your working, then check each answer by estimating first. Examiners reward clear reasoning as much as correct answers.
