Twelve money words hidden in an 11 by 11 grid: penny, nickel, dime, quarter, dollar, cents, coins, money, bank, save, spend and change. Words only go across and down, so it suits early readers. It is a good warm-up before a counting coins sheet, or a reward after one, and the words are the ones children need to read the word problems. Tick each word off the list as you find it. Page 2 is the answer key.
