Curriculum Strand: (Grades 3 and 4)
Number Sense and Numeration: Read, represent, compare and order whole numbers to 100, and use concrete materials to represent
fractions and money amounts to 100cents. Reinforces the idea that one can reach different totals using many combinations. Students
become familiar with different coin amounts by combining coins to make change.
Minds on Activity for the Students:
(Slide 3) Class discussion: Before you show the video ask your class about money. What does a coin represent? What does a dollar
represent? How do dollars and cents relate? How do they differ? Are there different types of coins? If so, what are they?
(Slide 4) Watch the episode of Tumble Town Tale entitled Shopping fees
Questions for students: How much Money did Tumbleweed have? What did he buy?
(Slide 5) Have your class match the coin with the amount it represents
Model task:
(Slide 6) Teacher presents the game Coin Combo to show the students how different combinations of coins can be used to create a
sum. Play a few rounds with the large group. Reveal your strategies for calculating different coin amounts (e.g., a nickel is worth five
cents and three more pennies must add to eight cents). Remind students that they can play this game at home or in the computer lab to
practice number sense.
(Slide 7,8,9) Explore coin combinations in a large group as students buy classroom items.
Student Task/Game:
(Slide 10) Divide class into groups of 2 or 3 students. Provide each group with play money and a sheet of paper. Students are allowed to
buy objects from the teacher when they are presented. The teacher will give the price and each group has to come up with as many
different combinations as possible to buy the objects.
(Slide 11) Replace this slide with slide 12. Record some of the coin combinations on this slide (be sure to copy and paste this slide to
use as a review for a test.)
Extensions: Turn this lesson into a game by adding a time limit and award points to the team who creates the most coin combinations in
the set time. Use this game as a review for a test.
