Race To a Quarter

Here's a money counting game that we adapted to suit our needs.

The original version can be found here: http://www.ehow.com/video_4429481_play-money-game.html

We play race to a quarter (or race to .50 or .75 depending on our schedule and interest level). It's always out on the shelf and makes a great break-time activity:



The play money is from Staples. The box holding the money and the dice is an old container that originally contained screws from the hardware store. I glued paper cut outs of the various coins at the top of the page before laminating the sheets. The paper coins were included in our Math text.
