About these worksheets
Money is the decimal system children already care about, which makes it the friendliest doorway into hundredths: $23.20 plus $7.49 is a place-value problem wearing a price tag. These twenty column additions keep decimal points aligned and cents at two digits, with carrying across the point appearing naturally. For hands-on counting first, start with the counting coins and counting money sheets.

Frequently asked questions
Why practise money addition in columns?
It’s exactly decimal addition — line up the points, add, carry — but with instant real-world meaning. Children who “can’t do decimals” can usually do money.
What amounts are used?
A two-digit dollar amount plus a one-digit dollar amount, both with cents — sums stay under $110.
Is there an answer key?
Yes, every total in blue below the worksheet.
