Laurie: Hey Suz
Susie: Hey Laurie
Laurie: Do you have a dollar?
Susie: A dollar … no but I have 10 dimes
Laurie: That’s a dollar!
Susie: And I also have 4 quarters
“Laurie: That’s a dollar too!
Here I’ll tell you about it”
5 pennies make a nickel
2 nickles make a dime
10 dimes make a dollar
So let’s do it 10 times
1 – 2 – 3
4 – 5 – 6
7… 8… 9
10 dimes make a dollar
And a dollar’s 10 dimes
5 nickels make a quarter
Or a nickel and 2 dimes
4 quarters make a dollar
So let’s jump 4 times
1 – 2 – 3
4 quarters make a dollar
And a dollar’s 10 dimes
100 pennies make a dollar
Or a nickel 20 times
Let’s count again, this time by 10’s
It’s faster, and it rhymes!
10 20 30 40
50 60 70 80
90 and 100
Now what’s the next line …?
Tick tock tick tock tock tock tick tock
100 pennies make a dollar
And a dollar’s 10 dimes!
