The next step: eight rows with quarters added, each adding up to 50 cents or less. The coins are lined up biggest value first, so children start at 25 and count on by tens, fives and ones: 25, 35, 40, 41. Saying the running total out loud as you point to each coin is the habit that makes counting money easy later on. Write each total in its box. Page 2 is the answer key.
