Coin Counter for Ages 8-10

Count the coins and make the change.

Coin Counter asks the child to add up a handful of coins, identify a named coin, or choose the coins that make a given amount. Money is the most common place children meet addition outside a classroom, and coins are awkward in a useful way: their value has nothing to do with their size.

The 8-10 level uses the full set of coins, counts groups of up to seven, and adds make-this-amount rounds where the child chooses the coins themselves.

What it teaches

• Recognising coins by name and value
• Adding coin values to find a total
• Making a given amount from different coins
• Real-world addition practice

How to play

1. Look at the coins laid out on the screen.
2. Add up their values, starting with the biggest.
3. Tap the total, or tap the coin the question asks for.
4. Some rounds ask you to build an amount from coins.
