Which currencies can I use?

US dollars and cents, UK pounds and pence (with the seven-sided 20p and 50p and the twelve-sided £1), and Indonesian rupiah. Each worksheet uses one currency.

How hard are the problems?

Coins only gives small totals for beginners. Coins and notes gives bigger totals for children who can already count coins.

Do the sheets come with answers?

Counting money, the way children learn it

Children first learn to name each coin and its value, then to count a handful of the same coin, and then to add mixed coins by starting with the biggest one and counting on. The coins on every problem are sorted from biggest to smallest to support that habit.

Dollars, pounds and rupiah

Each currency has its own coins drawn to their real shapes and relative sizes: the US quarter is larger than the nickel, the UK 20p and 50p have seven sides and the £1 coin has twelve, and the rupiah set includes the notes children see every day.
