Learning objective

What this activity builds

Combine US coin denominations and express the exact total in dollars and cents.

Worked example

What is the value of 2 quarters, 1 dime, 1 nickel, and 3 pennies?

$0.68 (68¢)

The values are 50¢ + 10¢ + 5¢ + 3¢ = 68¢, which is $0.68.

Teaching notes

Make the practice count

  • These are labeled teaching tokens, so focus on denomination values rather than realistic banknote or coin identification.
  • Group equal denominations and skip-count before combining the subtotals.
