Hello, everyone! Today, we’re going to have some fun with coins. Let’s learn how to count them and find out how much they’re worth. Are you ready? Let’s get started!
We have four different coins to look at today. Each coin has a special value, and we’re going to add them up to see how much money we have. Here’s what each coin is worth:
Let’s start by adding some coins together. We have a dime, a nickel, and a penny. Let’s see how much they add up to:
First, we add the dime (10 cents) and the nickel (5 cents). That’s 10 plus 5, which equals 15. Now, let’s add the penny (1 cent). So, 15 plus 1 equals 16 cents. Great job! We found our answer: 16 cents.
Now, let’s try another one. We have a quarter, a nickel, and a penny. Let’s add them up:
Start with the quarter (25 cents) and add the nickel (5 cents). That’s 25 plus 5, which equals 30. Now, add the penny (1 cent). So, 30 plus 1 equals 31 cents. Awesome! We found 31 cents.
Let’s try a bigger challenge. We have a quarter, a dime, and a nickel. Let’s see how much they add up to:
First, add the quarter (25 cents) and the dime (10 cents). That’s 25 plus 10, which equals 35. Now, add the nickel (5 cents). So, 35 plus 5 equals 40 cents. Fantastic! We found 40 cents.
Here’s our biggest challenge yet! We have two quarters and a nickel. Let’s add them together:
Start with the first quarter (25 cents) and add the nickel (5 cents). That’s 25 plus 5, which equals 30. Now, add the second quarter (25 cents). So, 30 plus 25 equals 55 cents. Wow! We found 55 cents.
You did an amazing job counting coins today! Keep practicing, and you’ll become a coin-counting expert in no time. Thanks for learning with us!
Coin Hunt at Home: Ask an adult to help you find some coins around the house. Once you have a few, try to identify each one and count their total value. Can you find a combination of coins that adds up to 50 cents? What about 75 cents? Share your findings with a family member and see if they can come up with different combinations!
Coin Sorting Game: Create a simple game with your friends or family. Gather a mix of pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters. Take turns picking a coin from the pile without looking. Once you pick a coin, say its name and value out loud. Keep track of the total amount each player collects. The player with the highest total value at the end wins!
Coin Art Project: Use coins to create a fun piece of art. Arrange the coins in different patterns or shapes on a piece of paper. As you place each coin, say its name and value. Once your artwork is complete, count the total value of the coins used. Take a picture of your creation and share it with your class or family!

Today, we have a new worksheet that has to do with money. We’ve got our monster here, and he’s holding four different coins. The directions say to count the value of the coins in cents and circle the number that equals this amount. We have two options here.
Let’s start by figuring out how much each one of these coins is worth. We know that a penny is worth one cent, so I’ll write that down. This is a nickel, which is worth five cents. Then we have a dime, which is worth ten cents. Now, I need to add all of these up, so I’ll write this out on the side.
I’ve got 10 plus 5. Make sure to line it up correctly with the tens place and the ones place. Then I have 1. So, let’s add this up: 0 plus 5 is 5, plus 1 is 6. I have just 1 left, so the answer is 16. Now, I’ll check my options: 23 or 16. Here’s our answer!
Next, we have the nickel again. This is the other side of the nickel we saw last time, which is 5 cents. This is also a penny, worth 1 cent, and this one is a quarter, which we know is 25 cents.
Let’s add these up on the side: 25 plus 5 plus 1. So, 5 plus 5 is 10, plus 1 is 11. Since that’s a two-digit number, I’ll carry the 1 over. Now, I’ll add these together: 2 plus 1 is 3. So my answer is 31 cents, and I’ll circle the correct answer: 31.
Great! Let’s move on to the next one. It looks like we have a quarter, which is 25 cents, plus a dime, which is 10 cents, plus a nickel, which is 5 cents.
Again, I’ll add these up: 25 plus 10 plus 5. So, skipping over the 0, 5 plus 5 is 10. I’ll carry the 1. Now, 2 plus 1 plus 1 is 4. I’ll write 4 down here. I’m looking for my answer, which is 40. That’s this one!
We have one more here. We’ve got a quarter (25 cents), a nickel (5 cents), and another quarter (25 cents). This is our biggest one so far. Let’s add these together: 25 plus 5 plus 25.
So, 5 plus 5 is 10, plus 5 is 15. I’ll carry the 1 since it’s a two-digit number. Now, 1 plus 2 is 3, plus 2 is 5. My answer is 55 cents. I’m looking for 55, and there it is!
