the 10 cent coin is gold or yellow, and has bumps around the edge. it is smaller than the 5c coin but is worth more.
The 5c coin is also brown but it is much bigger than 1cand 2c coins. it is the third least valuable coin.
1 cent and 2cent coins are brown and smooth at the edges. The 1cent coin is the smallest. We no longer use these coins.
Making change
to give someone change in a shop we have to do the amount the person gives us minus the cost of the thing you buy.
Adding coins
5c+1c
2c+2c+2c
1c+1c+1c+1c+1d+1c

We played in role as the shopkeeper and the customer. the shopkeeper gives change and tells the person how much something is.
we can give people change in lots of different ways. we can give them change of 10c by giving them a 10c coin, two 5c coins, or five 2c coins.
