This set of Prices Flashcards gives you a chance to practice numbers up to 100 in the context of shopping. The picture cards show images of school supplies with prices printed below. Using the school supply flashcards without prices, you can try a “prices dictation” (the teacher’s checklist makes this easy).
Or allow the students to set their own prices and dictate to each other. You can also print prices-only flashcards and combined them with a different set of nouns, such as food flashcards . Most of the pictures are recycled from the bigger “ Classroom Objects ” flashcard set. Most of the objects are singular nouns, except three ( scissors , coloured pencils , and stickers ). So be ready to practice both How much is the ~ ? and How much are the ~ ? The prices are realistic– I found these numbers on a cheaply-priced online retailer of actual classroom supplies. Prices are all in dollars, with the $ symbol. Have fun shopping!
Word list: $1.07, $1.79, $13.98, $14.27, $14.99, $15.33, $2.79, $22.79, $25.95, $3.98, $33.15, $4.99, $42.48, $65.52, $79.97, $8.95, $9.97, $99.99

How to Teach Prices Flashcards with Flashcards
Parents and educators can use Prices Flashcards by first introducing the school supply items without prices to familiarize children with the vocabulary. Then, show the flashcards with prices to help children associate the numbers with the objects. Encourage children to repeat the prices aloud and practice asking and answering questions about the cost of each item. For example, a parent might say, "How much is the pencil?" and the child responds, "$1.07." This method helps children connect numbers with real-world shopping situations, making learning both meaningful and engaging.
