About this resource
Description
Our whats the amount worksheet gives second graders focused practice counting mixed coins and writing money amounts the way adults do, with a dollar sign and a decimal point. Students count quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies, find the total value of each group, and record it in dollar notation such as $0.52. It is a simple, clear way to connect counting coins with reading and writing prices.
Using This Worksheet
In Part A, children count five rows of coins, starting with the coins worth the most, and write each total in the box. In Part B, they read three amounts written in words, like forty-one cents, and write the same amount with a dollar sign and a decimal point. The whats the amount worksheet works well for independent practice, a money math center, homework, or a quick review after a lesson on coins.
What’s Included
- Five count-the-coins rows with quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies
- Three number-word amounts to write in dollar notation
- A complete answer key
Why Kids Benefit
First, counting from the largest coin to the smallest builds fluent skip counting by 25s, 10s, 5s, and 1s. Second, writing $0.70 and $0.08 teaches why the zero matters in money notation. Third, matching word amounts to numbers strengthens the reading side of this 2nd grade money worksheet skill.
Ideas for Teachers and Parents
Give students real or play coins so they can build each row before writing the total. At home, empty a coin jar onto the table, grab a small handful, and have your child count it and write the amount with a dollar sign and decimal point. Swap roles next, and let your child make a handful for you to count and write.
