Explore Learn Repeat

Adding Money In my pre-K/ kindergarten classroom, we use dots to help us learn to add money. The dot symbolizes 5 cents and we use the number one under the penny to remember to add 1. Under a nickel, your student would draw one dot because a nickel equals five cents. Under a dime, your student would draw two dots, and five dots under a quarter. Adding money is very difficult for children. To help them, practice counting by fives. Also don’t be afraid to let them practice counting real coins. Thi
