MONEY WORKSHEET INSTRUCTIONS AND LESSON PLAN

Many students, including some special education students, have difficulty with giving and making change. For many of these students, one method is to teach to ignore the amount after the decimal, by estimating, and instead give one dollar more. If one dollar more is not available, then students should give the nearest dollar amount that they have available.

Have students place an "X" on the money that rounds up to one dollar more than the amount given. In other words, drop the number after the decimal, and add one dollar. So $3.47 would be rounded to $4.00. In this example, 4 dollar bills would be marked with an X on the worksheet.

This worksheet may be adjusted according to the skill level of your students. For students just beginning counting money and making change, configure the worksheet to use only one type of money (such as only dollars). Then slowly add additional types of money.

Multiple currencies are available. If you need a particular currency that is not available, please send us a suggestion by using the link at the bottom of this page.
