This game is from www.harcourtschool.com . It is an effective game to play because it not only tests students' knowledge on determining the amount of each coin, it also gives students the opportunity to compare two sets of coins. For example, students will have to determine how much 2 quarters and 4 pennies equal, as well as 5 nickels and 2 dimes. After students type in their answer, the website asks them to compare the amounts using the greater than, less than, or equal to symbols.
