  • Count rows of one kind of coin and groups of dimes, nickels and pennies to 99¢
  • Pick out income and needs, and sort spend, save and share
  • Continue repeating patterns and name them with letters, draw the next step of a growing pattern, and continue number patterns
  • The review goes coins first, then the Texas money lessons, then patterns, so a class can do only the parts its state teaches
  • Answer keys name the lesson and skill of every question

How to Use This Pack

Two pages that go over the whole unit on money and patterns, to do together the day before the test. Its 11 questions are the same kinds as the test's, in the same order, with other coins and numbers, so nothing on the review is on the test. Coins are drawn at their true sizes next to each other, heads and tails, and every group to count holds only dimes, nickels and pennies. There is no Score line: it is practice, not a grade. The pre-check and the unit test are packs of their own.

In the Classroom

This unit comes from state standards, and the review goes in the test's order: coins (questions 1 to 5), the Texas money lessons (6 to 8), then patterns (9 to 11). Do only the parts your state teaches, together, the day before the test, with coins out. Work a question, then let students try the next one on their own, and stop on any that trip up more than a few. The keys name each question's lesson, so a question the class misses points to the lesson to go back to.

At Home

Use the review as practice before a test at school. Empty a pocket or a coin jar and count the coins together, dimes first, then nickels, then pennies. Look for patterns at home, like tiles, socks or stairs, and ask what comes next.

Tips for Success

  • Read the questions aloud for students who are still learning to read
  • A dime is the smallest coin, but it is worth more than a penny or a nickel
  • Count dimes by 10s, then nickels by 5s, then pennies by 1s
  • For a pattern, find the part that repeats or how much each step grows
  • Go back to the lesson the key names for a question the class misses

Common Core Standards Alignment

This pack supports the following Common Core State Standards for Mathematics:

  • 2.MD.C.8 Solve story problems with pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters and dollar bills, writing amounts with the $ and ¢ signs.
