Worksheet 1 Worksheet 2How to Count Coins: Pennies, Nickels, Dimes, Quarters
Review Coin Values
Begin by identifying each coin and recalling its value.
- Quarter = 25¢
- Dime = 10¢
- Nickel = 5¢
- Penny = 1¢
Recognizing each coin quickly makes the counting process much smoother.
Count from Largest to Smallest
When looking at a row of coins, start with the highest‑value coins and work down.
- Add the quarters (count by 25)
- Then add the dimes (count by 10)
- Then the nickels (count by 5)
- Finish with the pennies (count by 1)
This approach keeps the total organized and prevents losing track of the amount.
