Math - Today we continued to look at coins. We reviewed each coin's name, what picture appears on the coin and how much it is worth.

Copper, brown and worth one cent. 

Nickel, nickel thick and fat, 

You’re worth five cents, I know that. 

Dime, dime little and thin, 

I remember you’re worth ten cents. 

Quarter, quarter big and bold, 

You’re worth 25 cents, I’m told
