Making Change USD vs Second Grade Math Drill

This program teaches the student about changing (converting) larger denominations of currency into smaller ones, such as breaking a dollar bill into four quarters or ten dimes or any other collections of coins that add up to the dollar. The screen has a top box showing the coin or bill for which change is needed. To the right of the top box is a counter giving the value of the currency in the top box. Under the top box are more boxes in the middle of the screen with spaces for the coins or bills that the student is using to make change for the money in the top box. To the right of the middle boxes is a counter giving the value of the change in the middle boxes. At the bottom is another set of boxes with a coin or bill in each box. The student clicks on these coins or bills to make change for the coin or bill in the top box. Change Made The student clicks this button when he/she thinks the correct change has been placed in the boxes in the middle. Settings Mode Test Select this option to measure the student’s progress.

This is a simple math drill but with multiple reward animations. There is no sound. Only button clicks are required for answers. The problem types are addition, subtraction, missing addend, sequences, comparing numbers, base 10 blocks, fractions, 2D and 3D geometrical shapes, telling time, fractions, bar charts, measurement and Venn diagrams. Problems become more difficult as the number of correct answers increases. The child can view the number of correct answers, shown with an emoji for each one. If the child enters an incorrect answer, a hint image appears. On a settings page (for adults but with no restrictions) children may be added by name and assigned a level 1 - 3. The name, level and the number of correct answers are stored on your device for future sessions. The app is free, and there are no ads. No Wi-Fi or cell signal is required.
