💵 Big Spender! Let's start counting paper money and coins together to buy the good stuff at the toy store!
Concept
Now we have crisp paper dollar bills. They are worth exactly 100 cents (or 4 quarters!). 🎯 **The Counting Strategy:** Always count the biggest, most valuable things first! **Example:** You have a $1 bill, 2 Quarters, 1 Dime, 3 Pennies. 1. **Count the Bills:** I have 1 Dollar. 2. **Count the Quarters:** 25, 50. (I have 50 cents). 3. **Count the Dimes:** 50 + 10 = 60 cents! 4. **Count the Pennies:** 60 + 3 = 63 cents! 5. **Put it all together:** **$1.63!** (One dollar, and sixty-three cents).
