Counting Coins Worksheet, 6 Mixed Coin Problems
Six rows of real coin illustrations, one blank to fill in each, and a reference key at the bottom reminding your student that a quarter is 25 cents. This counting coins worksheet puts coin recognition and addition together in one tidy practice sheet.
Each of the six problems on this counting coins worksheet shows a row of mixed coins drawn from quarters, dimes, nickels, and pennies. Your student counts the coins in each row and writes the total as a dollar-and-cent amount on the blank provided. A reference strip along the bottom lists the value of each coin type, which makes this a strong fit for 3rd grade students who are still building fluency with coin values.
This sheet works well as a standalone math block activity or tucked into a money unit study. Students practice two skills at once: identifying coin denominations and adding mixed values accurately. It suits independent work once your homeschooler can recognize each coin, or guided instruction if they are still shaky on dime versus nickel.
Six mixed coin problems make this counting coins worksheet ideal for 3rd grade homeschool math. Students write totals in dollars and cents.

Usage Notes
A pencil is the right tool here since students are writing dollar amounts in answer blanks. The coin reference key at the bottom reduces frustration for students still memorizing values, so this sheet handles independent practice well once coin recognition is solid.
Printing Tips
Standard 20 lb copy paper works fine for pencil writing. Print a small set of two or three copies so your student can repeat the practice across multiple days without reusing a marked-up sheet.
