This unit introduces GhSL vocabulary related to math operations, money management, and quantity terms. These signs help students talk about counting, paying, budgeting, and measuring, which are essential for everyday tasks such as shopping, saving, planning, and sharing. Understanding these signs empowers students to communicate effectively in school, markets, homes, and banks.
By the end of this unit, students will be able to
Accurately sign basic math operations like count, subtract, multiply, and divide.
Use signs to describe time, amounts, and frequency (e.g., first, last, twice, half, full, almost).
Communicate about money matters such as borrowing, loans, tax, paying, and budgeting.
Understand and express ideas about cost, profit, debt, and making wise financial decisions.
