Recognizing coins

We had a breakthrough today!!! I am very excited. We had to take a short break recently from Rightstart Math. J was having a hard time recognizing the penny, nickel, dime and quarter. We started back today with math after our short Christmas break. When we sat down, I said to J, let's see if you remember the names of the coins. I did not think that she would because she was still a little rusty when we took our school break. However, not only did she know the names, she also knew all of their values. I was shocked, but very excited!! Tomorrow, we will start back with our Rightstart. We are also supplementing with Singapore's Essential Math Kindergarten B and we are both enjoying it!
