Quick Quarters

Worksheet Description

This worksheet offers a coin recognition task where students are invited to color the circles that total a quarter, or twenty-five cents. Each column on the sheet contains a mix of coins, and students must identify which group of coins adds up to the value of a quarter. A completed example is provided at the top as a visual guide. The activity is designed to be both educational and enjoyable, encouraging students to engage with the task of identifying coin values.

The “Quarter Quest Challenge” worksheet aims to educate students on the value of quarters and the different combinations of coins that can be used to make twenty-five cents. It reinforces the concept of coin equivalence and accumulation, providing a foundation for financial literacy. As students color the correct circles, they practice their counting skills and enhance their familiarity with American currency. This exercise promotes critical thinking as students must analyze each group of coins to determine if they collectively equal a quarter.
