Demonstrate this set on any magnetic receptive surface, such

as students learn about money. The large size (coins are four
times standard size and bills are 1.5 times standard size) ensures
easy viewing anywhere in the classroom and helps make
demonstrations a breeze!
Show the fronts and backs of the coins and bills in various
lessons and activities. The detailed images help students instantly
identify coins and bills used in the real world.
Sample Activities:
• Display the coins on the whiteboard and help students identify
each coin by name. Discuss the images on the front and back
of each coin. Ask a variety of questions such as:
– What color is each coin?
– What numbers do you see on the coins?
– What words do you see on the coins?
– Which coin is the largest? Which is the smallest?*
*Repeat the activity using the bills from the set.

• Display one of each coin and bill on the whiteboard.
Have students identify the value of each coin and bill.
For example, penny = one cent, nickel = five cents, etc.
• Display a variety of coins on the whiteboard and ask students
to sort the coins into groups of pennies, nickels, dimes, and
quarters. Then, ask students to determine the value of each
group of coins.
• Introduce more challenging skills such as counting groups
of coins and bills. Display a group of coins and bills and ask
students to determine the total value of the group. Remind
students to begin counting with the coin of the greatest value
and end with the coin of the least value.
• Bring in real items (toys, cans of food, school supplies, etc.) and
label each item with a price. Ask students to use the double-
sided money to show the value using coins or a combination of
coins and bills.
