How to help with this skill

Second graders connect place value to addition, subtraction and familiar everyday situations. Encourage grouping into tens and ones.

  • Name each coin and its value in cents.
  • Add like values first and convert 100 cents into one dollar when helpful.
  • Write answers with dollars and cents clearly.

Try this: Count real or pretend coins before doing the written version.
