Subject Area: Mathematics
Grade Level: 2nd

Objective/Purpose: Students will understand that the relationships between the values of
coins can be used to determine the total values of a collection of coins (up to $1.00). They
will also use this understanding to produce the given amounts of certain items.


TEK: 2nd grade Mathematics
1 (C) select tools, including real objects, manipulatives, paper and pencil, and
technology as appropriate, and techniques, including mental math, estimation, and
number sense as appropriate, to solve problems;

5 (A) determine the value of a collection of coins up to one dollar; and
(B) use the cent symbol, dollar sign, and the decimal point to name the value of a
collection of coins.
Teacher: Katie Hensarling



Materials/Resources/Equipment Needed:
Envision book, Volume 2, Lesson 10-2, pg. 495
Coin manipulatives
Picture notecards
Pigs Will Be Pigs: Fun With Math and Money by Amy Axelrod (if time allows)



Anticipatory Set:
To refresh the students, the teacher will use the document camera and projector to review the
coin values and skip-counting. This will prepare the students for the Envision book lesson, as
well as for the activity and worksheet.

Instructional delivery:
Students have been reviewing and learning about coin values and hairy money, so they
need to know each value of each coin and how to count the hairs. The teacher will do a
quick review with the class to begin the lesson.
Students will be seated at their desks for the workbook part of the lesson. The teacher will
be at the teacher desk, using the document camera and projector to work on pages in the
Envision book. Students will be working in their own books, along with the teacher. The
teacher will ask students for their input and thoughts throughout this part of the lesson in

the book.
After the bookwork, the teacher will pass out notecards to each student and have students
get out their coin manipulative bag. Students will be instructed to pretend they are going
to the store and they need to make sure that they have exact amount for the item on their
notecard. The student will need to count out their coins to show how much is needed to
purchase the item. When they have completed this and had a partner check it, they will
switch and continue on with a new notecard.
After the notecard activity, students will be given a Counting Sets of Coins worksheet to
begin working on that is similar to the notecard activity. If they finish this, they will be
given the opportunity to turn the sheet over and draw an item with a price tag. They will
then draw at least 3 coins to make the exact amount needed to purchase the item.
If time allows, the teacher will then read Pigs Will Be Pigs: Fun With Math and Money.



Model:
During the bookwork lesson, the teacher will model the steps for problems so that students
will understand strategies to use. Before the notecard activity, the teacher will model how
the activity is done so that the students know what is expected and how to complete the
activity.


Check for Understanding:
The student will demonstrate moderate understanding if he or she can count a collection of
coins correctly in the notecard activity. Each student will have a different item with a
different price so that as they complete a set, they can exchange with another student to
complete another. The student will demonstrate greater understanding if he or she can
answer the questions correctly on the independent practice worksheet. Students will be
challenged to make up their own item and price, as well as drawing the exact amount of
coins to match the price.

Guided Practice:
During the notecard activity, the teacher will be walking around the room to ensure that
the students are following directions and doing the activity correctly. The teacher will point
out to students if they are doing it incorrectly, to guide them to a better and correct
understanding of objective.


Independent Practice:
The students will be given a Counting Sets of Coins worksheet that they will complete
independently for extra practice. At the end of the lesson, they will turn this worksheet in
for the teacher to check for understanding.
