About this resource
Description
Money has two languages. A child hears a price out loud as “sixty-seven cents,” and then sees the very same price written on a shelf tag as $0.67. Moving between those two forms is a real second grade skill, and the Whats the Money Price Worksheet gives students focused practice doing exactly that. The tricky part is not the counting. It is the notation: where the dollar sign goes, where the decimal point goes, and what to do when the price has only one digit or ends in a zero.
On this printable page, six small shop items each carry a price written in words. Students read the price and write it again inside the answer box using a dollar sign and a decimal point. A worked example at the top of the page models the move before they start. Two of the six items are there on purpose: one price under ten cents, so students have to hold a zero in the dimes place, and one price in whole dimes, so they have to keep the zero on the end instead of dropping it. A complete answer key is included on the final page.
What’s Included
- One printable worksheet page with six priced items
- A worked example that models the conversion before students begin
- Prices written in words, from nine cents up to eighty-five cents
- A tinted answer box on every item, sized for second grade handwriting
- A complete answer key on the final page
Three Reasons This Helps Kids
- It separates the idea from the notation. A student who can count coins can still write $67 instead of $0.67. Practicing the written form on its own fixes that before it becomes a habit.
- It builds place value in the cents columns. Nine cents and ninety cents look almost the same until a child has to write both, which makes the dimes and pennies places visible.
- It matches how money really appears. Prices on shelves, receipts and menus are written with a dollar sign and a decimal point, so this is the form students will meet outside the classroom.
Ideas For Teachers And Parents
Read the first price aloud together and write it on the board before students start, so the class agrees on where the decimal point lands. This 2nd grade money worksheet works well as a warm up, as a math center activity, or as a quick check before a unit test. For extra practice, hand students real coins and ask them to build one of the prices on the page, then compare what they built with what they wrote. For students who finish early, ask them to put the six items in order from the cheapest to the most expensive, or to name two items they could buy with one dollar. The Whats the Money Price Worksheet also pairs well with a play store or classroom shop, where students can price items of their own and write the tags.
