This lesson plan is for a 45-minute kindergarten math class on identifying coins and their values. Students will create flipbooks where they write the names of coins (penny, nickel, dime, quarter), stamp images of the coins, and write the value of each coin. The teacher will begin with an overview, play a song to grab attention, review coins from the previous lesson, distribute materials, guide students through completing the flipbooks, and finish with a recap on the carpet.
