3. Show students the coin cookie worksheet and go over the rules
as stated. Make sure students
understand that they can purchase anything
they want as long as they don't go over $5.00
4. Have students use a paper copy of coin cookie to list everything
they are purchasing. Number 1 on

five dollar bill then count the correct change that they will get back.
