Money worksheets for 2nd grade

In 2nd grade, children learn to count mixed coins and solve simple money problems. Then making change, counting up from the price to the amount paid, follows in 2nd and 3rd grade.

Counting Coins goes in order: pennies and nickels, then dimes, then quarters, up to $1.50. Making Change starts with paying with a dollar and counting up with coins, then moves to $5 and bigger bills, buying two items, story problems and a mixed review. Each pack has 20 pages and a full answer key.

Most 2nd graders start with Counting Coins and move to Making Change once mixed coins feel easy.

What you get

The pack is a US Letter PDF (A4 works with fit to page): 20 practice pages, a 20-page answer key, a how-to page with tips for parents and teachers, a color-in progress tracker and a cover page. Download it right after checkout and print as many copies as you need for your family or one classroom.

Tips

• Use real coins for the first few pages.
• Count the biggest coins first, then the smaller ones.
• For making change, count up from the price instead of subtracting.
