We moved on to a simple but effective Race to A Dollar game that I “sort of” made up. She loved playing Coin War and played it with family members every day of the week between sessions, so by today’s session she knew the values pretty well. (If you don’t have money cards here is a free printable for this game) Then we practiced their values by playing Coin War, first with single cards and then by turning over two cards and adding their value together. In the past I have done coin rubbings with crayons but we didn’t have time for that. (Mine are from the Right Start manipulative kit but any cards with pictures of coins would do.) We sorted them, matched them with real coins, and talked about the real coins’ attributes. She loves games so I wanted to find a game for teaching money. We worked on the decimal place value using my ideas in this post (Place Value Yahtzee was a big hit!) However when we started to work with money I realized she didn’t know the names/values of coins. One of the students I currently tutor individually needed help last week with decimal place value and money.
