Description
The Counting Coins Problem Solving Worksheet gives 4th grade students practice solving real-world money word problems. Kids count coins, multiply prices, find totals, and make change using dollars and cents written in decimal notation. This counting coins problem solving worksheet asks students to plan two steps for every problem, just like the multi-step questions they will see on state tests.
Each of the four problems sits in its own card with a work box beside it. Students buy notebooks and find their change from a $10 bill, save an allowance and buy a soccer ball, count the quarters, dimes, and nickels in a piggy bank, and add up the money from a class bake sale. A short tip box reminds them to line up the decimal points before they add or subtract. Use it for independent practice, homework, a math center, or a quick review before a money unit test.
What’s Included
- One 4th grade money worksheet with four two-step word problems
- A large work box beside each problem for showing every step
- A decimal tip box for adding and subtracting money
- A complete answer key with every step and the labeled answer
3 Reasons This Worksheet Helps Kids
- Two-step problems teach students to plan before they calculate, an important problem-solving habit.
- Counting coins and making change are life skills children use every time they shop.
- Showing the work in a box helps teachers spot whether a mistake came from the plan or the math.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Before the worksheet, set up a pretend store with price tags and play money so students can act out buying and making change. After they finish, ask children to write their own two-step money problem for a partner to solve. This 4th grade money word problems worksheet also pairs well with real coins at home, where kids can count a jar of change and plan a small purchase.
