These easy to use, basic counting money worksheets are appropriate and functional for older students working on basic money skills.

These counting money worksheets were created for a group of students in special education who wanted to have homework worksheets like their peers but who needed simplified tasks. They would also be effective for general education students learning money skills as well as for special education students of all ages working on use of money.
These money counting worksheets are a cut and paste activity designed for students to practice counting money to match price tags. The worksheet simulates shopping experiences for your students. They are great for providing homework or independent work for students to practice their money calculation skills.
Using these money counting worksheets:
- The students cut the item with the price and glue it to the space next to the collection of money.
- Each worksheet revolves around a store with items and prices and 10 problems with either combinations of coins or combinations of bills ($1-$20).
- Students can engage in shopping role play with classmates while completing the worksheets.
The worksheets are great for easy to use practice materials for a para-run center. They are great for independent work systems or task boxes. And they are perfect for kids who want to have homework like their peers (which was why I created them). Plus, they provide teachers with permanent work products for data of students’ mastery of different levels of money skills.
