The clerk tells her that they areshort on dollar bills and have toomany coins. She asks Sarah tocome back with dollar bills insteadof coins. Sarah’s mom does nothave the bills to help Sarah paywith dollars. They go home to seeif dad has bills to trade forSarah’s coins.

Sarah’s dad says she needs to group her coins into one dollar amounts because he doesn’t have time to help her count the coins. Sarah goes into her room and begins to group her coins, but she needs some help. She calls her friend Ginny, and she asks her for some advice. Ginny tells her to put together groups of four quarters.

• How many dollars would she have from her twenty-eight quarters??????

Page 7: Searching for Dollars By: Dara Gramling Heather Hansard Lori Webber Faron Wiseman

Sarah found that she had seven dollars in

quarters.

Is Sarah correct???????

Page 8: Searching for Dollars By: Dara Gramling Heather Hansard Lori Webber Faron Wiseman

• Yes, she is correct because there are seven groups of four quarters, and we know that four quarters equal one dollar. Sarah still needs some help to figure out how to make more one dollar amounts from her coins. She calls Johnny’s best friend Muhammad

and tells him what coins she had left.

Page 9: Searching for Dollars By: Dara Gramling Heather Hansard Lori Webber Faron Wiseman

Muhammad tells her that tendimes make one dollar. Sarah tells Muhammad thatshe has ten dimes. Are they on the right track????

Page 10: Searching for Dollars By: Dara Gramling Heather Hansard Lori Webber Faron Wiseman

Yes, they are because ten dimes equalsone dollar. Now Sarah has only nickelsand pennies left. She calls Suzie and tellsher what coins she has left. Suzie tells herthat 15 nickels make one dollar, but whenShe counted her nickels by fives to checkShe only had $.75. How many nickelsdoes it take to make onedollar????

Page 11: Searching for Dollars By: Dara Gramling Heather Hansard Lori Webber Faron Wiseman

It takes twenty nickels to make one dollar,

so Sarah has one dollar in nickels. If she

adds that dollar to what she already has, she will

have a total of nine dollars. Help Sarah double

check this addition by writing a math equation.

Twenty

Page 12: Searching for Dollars By: Dara Gramling Heather Hansard Lori Webber Faron Wiseman

Does your equation look like Sarah’s??

$7.00 + $1.00 + $1.00 = $9.00

Is $9.00 enough for Sarah to buy Johnny’s birthday present? No. She still has pennies, so let’s see if she has enough to buy the car.

Page 13: Searching for Dollars By: Dara Gramling Heather Hansard Lori Webber Faron Wiseman

Sarah counted forty-eight pennies from her piggy bank. If we put this with the $9.00

that she already has, will she have enough to buy the present??

$9.00 + $0.48 = $9.48

Now that Sarah has grouped all of her coins,she can go to her dad with her nine groupsof one dollar and trade for dollar bills. Shenow has enough money to buy the birthdaypresent for Johnny. She and her mom headback to the store with her nine dollar billsand forty-eight pennies.
