Are your students having difficulty learning and identifying coins and their values? Mine were, so I worked to develop this interactive notebook and PowerPoint slides & I am thrilled with their progress!

The materials in this packet are developed to use in conjunction with one another. Use the powerpoint to introduce coins, then use the notebook to provide practice with each concept. I have also included a parent letter and a 2 page assessment to provide you with valuable pre/post learning data.

Notebook - The notebook is in black and white. Students are encouraged to color pages to reinforce the colors of coins and make the book more "theirs". Most pages require students to make interactive activities with simple cuts & paste directions. Pages that require more directions (accordion counting, and pocket with flap), are towards the end of the book.

The notebook features practice in the following areas for identification and use of the penny, nickel, dime and quarter:

•Sorting – Color and sort coins into a jar

•Identification – Identify front, back, value, and information about the penny, nickel, dime and quarter.

•Counting by 1’s, 5’s, 10’s, 25’s: 2 activities! Students will identify how much & use coins to make requested amount

•Accordion counting support

•Comparison – Flippable pages show how much $1 is in penny, nickel, dime & quarter

•Making purchases with coins – Select the item to purchase and place in pocket.

PowerPoint

•Look at and discuss what coins look like & their value

•Interactive slides – practice counting coins, coin comparison & making purchases

Thank you for checking out my interactive notebook & corresponding PowerPoint presentation!
