Introduction
The second grade students will work independently on identifying and solving problems by counting a variety of coins. Students will understand that each kind of coin (quarter, dime, nickel and penny) has a specific value unrelated to its physical size.
Task
The students should be able to identify the difference between a quarter, dime, nickel and penny. Each coin looks differently and worth a different amount. Then the students should be able to determine the value of a group of coins using a variety of coin combinations.
Process
All coins look differently and can be different size and colors (brown or silver).They have pictures on the front and back of each coin. On the front of the coins have different United States presidents and the backs have symbols that represent the United States. Coins can be worth 1 cent, 5 cents, 10 cents or 25 cents. You will review coins and their attributes by clicking on the video below.

Coins help us buy things we need and want. We can use our addition skills to figure out the value of a group of coins. If you wanted to purchase something, you would have to be able to count how much money you would give the cashier to buy the item.
(Set the game to MEDIUM, remember to drag and drop the coins one at a time before clicking on the 'Check' button).
