Dollars and Cents

See Lesson Ideas for this topic

Money is a topic that many early elementary classes visit each year, so what your children may already know and understand will vary. Familiarize your children with pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, and dollar bills. Although coins such as the half-dollar, the Susan B. Anthony dollar, and the Sacagawea golden dollar are rare, it is still important for your children to recognize them and know their monetary values.
