This document outlines a WebQuest to teach students how to count coins and their values up to one dollar. Students will watch an instructional video on counting coins. They will then practice counting coins in groups by coin type and mixed coins in bags. Students can practice counting coins in a mock store setting. Games and activities are included to help students master counting coin values and amounts. The goal is for students to be evaluated on their ability to count individual and mixed coins up to one dollar.
