Making “Cents” Out Of Money

American money is the perfect subject to discuss on 100th Day. Explain that a dollar is worth 100 cents. Also teach that quarters are worth 25 cents, dimes 10, and nickels five. Oversee the “trading” of toy money. One child could exchange 10 dimes for a dollar. Another child’s dollar could become four quarters. Someone could swap 20 nickels for two quarters and five dimes. Eventually, have all the students “spend” their toy money on an item from the “Happy 100th Day” Class Pack or the “100th Day” Button Assortment Pack
