Retrieval Quiz
Arrival Task – What Do You Already Know?
1. Say it
Name one way money comes IN.
Any honest answer counts — say it out loud.
2. Spot it
Name one thing money goes OUT on.
Any honest answer counts — say it out loud.
3. Point to it
Point to something that costs money.
Any honest answer counts — say it out loud.
1. The big idea
What does 'Money comes in. Money goes out.' mean in your own words?
Own words — one honest sentence.
2. Today's work
Today is 'Where Money Comes From' — income vs spending. What do you think we'll be doing?
A sensible prediction — we check it at the end.
3. Success check
By the end you should be able to say: 'I can name ways money comes into a household.' What will that take today?
Name one thing you’ll need to do or try.
1. Two doors
Money comes in through several doors — earned, given, borrowed. What's the real difference between the last two?
A gift is yours; borrowed money is someone else's, visiting — it goes back, usually with extra.
2. The trap
Why can borrowing feel like income when it isn't?
It arrives the same way — but it's future money spent early, plus interest.
3. Privacy
Why do we never discuss anyone's real family money in this room?
It's private, it varies, and nobody should ever feel measured by it. Practice money only.

The Model — Where Money Comes From
Key Idea: Money comes in. Money goes out.
👀 Look: money starts at work — effort becomes pay, pay fills the wallet.
Step 0 of 3
Money IN (wages, benefits) vs money OUT (spending).
Money IN is wages, benefits, gifts — money that becomes yours. Money OUT is everything you spend. Every household runs on the balance between the two.
Sorting real examples into income and spending.
Sorting real examples builds the reflex: pocket money IN, bus fare OUT, birthday tenner IN, phone top-up OUT. The reflex is what keeps budgets honest later.
Why we don't share personal family finances.
Family finances stay private — always. We practise on example money so everyone can join in with nothing personal on the table.

For the moderator, not just the folder
A tick says it happened. A witness statement says what you did. Before the photo is filed, the adult writes one sentence naming the thing they actually saw you do — and rings whether you did it Supported, Standard or Stretch.
That ring is the part that counts. It is the difference between “the class did this” and “this candidate did it, at this level, with this much help.” The witness sheet prints with every pack.

Own words + one example from today.
2.

3.
Where does today’s evidence bank?
ASDAN LI M1 challenge 1
1.
£20 borrowed at 'a little extra a week' — why can that cost more than £20 earned?
Interest stacks: borrowed money charges rent for every week it stays.
2.
Name an income that isn't wages, and a spend that isn't a shop. How do they fit the sort?
E.g. benefits/gift IN; bus fare/subscription OUT — the doors are wider than shops and jobs.
3.
Why does the IN/OUT sort matter more when money is tight?
Tight money leaves no slack — knowing the flow is the only way to steer it.

Scaffolding – Supported
Access & sensory notes (staff)
· The supported task today is: Post the money picture cards into the IN and OUT tins. Two are posted already so you can see the sort.
· Fine motor: offer the chunky-grip pen, and accept a card sort or a spoken answer scribed by an adult — the judgement is the evidence, not the handwriting.
· Sensory: Money is the sensitive part here, not noise. Every example stays practice money, and nobody is ever asked what their family has or spends.
· Cognitive load: a completed small piece beats a half-done large one at moderation. Cut the target, never the thinking.
· Ring the level honestly on the witness sheet. Supported with the work finished is a stronger portfolio entry than Standard with it abandoned.
