Coin Songs

On March 19 we learned four songs about coins (source: The Mailbox Magazine).  You can view the videos of us singing and read the lyrics with your child.  Enjoy!

Your child can also review coin values through the Everyday Math online games and learn about the history of each coin with the links listed below.






Penny  sung to the tune of BINGO

There is a coin that's worth one cent
and penny is it's name oh,
p-e-n-n-y, p-e-n-n-y, p-e-n-n-y,
and penny is it's name oh.

There is a coin that's brown and round
and penny is it's name oh,
p-e-n-n-y, p-e-n-n-y, p-e-n-n-y,
and penny is it's name oh.

There is a coin with President Lincoln
and penny is it's name oh,
p-e-n-n-y, p-e-n-n-y, p-e-n-n-y,
and penny is it's name oh.

Nickel sung to the tune of I'm a Little Teapot

I'm a little nickel,
can't you see,
I have President Jefferson on me.
When you go to spend me
don't forget
that I am worth
exactly five cents.





 Dime sung to the tune of Ten Little Indians


One little, two little, three little pennies,
four little, five little, six little pennies,
seven little, eight little, nine little pennies,
ten pennies equals one dime

Quarter sung to the tune of Clementine
  
Found a quarter, found a quarter,
found a quarter just now.
Just now I found a quarter,
found a quarter just now.
It is bigger, it is bigger,
it is bigger than the rest.
It is round and it is silver,
and it's worth twenty-five cents.
