Wishing Well

Worksheet Description

The “Wishing Well Coin Count” worksheet is a playful activity where four children, Liam, Noah, Oliver, and Elijah, have collected coins from a wishing well. Each child has a different assortment of coins, and the task for the students is to add up the value of the coins for each child. The coins are presented in clear graphics, allowing the children to easily identify and count them. Through this exercise, students will not only practice their counting skills but also have fun imagining the stories behind the coins in the wishing well.

This worksheet is designed to teach students how to count and add the value of coins, which is a fundamental aspect of financial literacy. It helps to improve their numerical skills by having them calculate the total amount of money each child has retrieved. The activity enhances their ability to recognize different denominations of coins and understand their respective values. Moreover, it introduces the concept of accumulation and saving, as students see the coins collected from the wishing well adding up to a tangible amount.
