This lesson is based on a fantastic resource from jlcaseyuk (via TES) - this is a set of cards with details of different bank accounts, including simple and compound interest, annual, monthly and quarterly interest payments. I adapted this and created a presentation as I felt my class needed more structure than just "here's a set of cards", hence plenty of worked examples for them to follow.

I also split the cards into annual, quarterly and monthly interest payments and printed onto red, orange and green paper respectively, allowing me to direct the pupils towards particular sets of cards.
