About these counting coins worksheets
Money math is real-life math. These sheets show drawings of US coins in true relative sizes, labeled with their values, and kids add them up to find the total. Kids circle the total from a few choices, which makes checking quick for grown-ups.
First and second graders work with pennies, nickels and dimes, and sometimes simply identify which coin is worth a given amount. Third graders and up add quarters and count bigger groups of coins. Real coins next to the sheet make it even more hands-on.

Questions parents ask
When do kids learn to count money?
Many children learn coin names and values in 1st grade and start adding coins in 1st and 2nd grade.
Why is the nickel bigger than the dime?
Coin size doesn't match value, which confuses many kids. Learning each coin's value by name helps.
What's the best way to count a mix of coins?
Sort coins from biggest value to smallest, then count on: 25, 35, 40, 41.
