We worked on counting money and then adding the coins needed to get to the next dollar amount. This is a difficult skill to learn for most. If you have a change jar at home it would be helpful to have your child grab a handful, count it out and then add more coins that would get them to the next dollar amount. I like to teach them to count on to what they already have so if they have $1.21 I would have them count 4 pennies to get to 25 and then 3 quarters to get to $2.00.
