Grade 2 is where time and money worksheets stop being separate topics and start overlapping on the same page: a child who can count coins but freezes on 5-minute clock intervals (or the other way around) needs practice at exactly this mixed level. The free worksheet below has 5 questions with an answer key — download it and use the notes below if your child gets stuck on one skill but not the other.
What's in the worksheet
The free download mixes two skills in the same 5 questions, which is exactly how Grade 2 tests the topic:
- Counting mixed coins (dimes and pennies together) to find a total value
- Reading a clock face to the nearest 5-minute interval
For example, question 1 shows a nickel and a dime and asks for the total value (answer: 15¢), while question 2 shows a clock and asks what time it reads (answer: 11:45). The remaining three questions repeat the coin-counting skill with different combinations, so a child gets more practice on the harder of the two skills without the worksheet feeling repetitive.
Why Grade 2 mixes time and money
By second grade, most curricula expect a child to tell time to 5-minute intervals (not just the hour and half-hour from Grade 1) and to count combinations of coins up to a dollar. Mixing the two skills on one worksheet mirrors how state assessments test it — a child has to recognize which skill a question needs and switch between them, which is harder than drilling 10 clock questions in a row.
Common mistakes to watch for
With coins, the most frequent error is counting every coin as the same value regardless of type — a child adds "3 coins" instead of adding up what each coin is actually worth. Lay the coins out largest-to-smallest and count the biggest coin's value out loud first ("that's a dime, 10 cents") before adding the rest one at a time.
With the clock, the common mistake is reading the minute hand as if it points at the nearest number instead of counting by 5s from the 12. If a child says "9:9" for a clock that reads 9:45, have them count around the clock face out loud in 5s (5, 10, 15... ) up to where the minute hand actually points.

Does this worksheet cover telling time or counting money?
Both — Grade 2 mixes the two skills on the same worksheet, which matches how the topic is usually tested at this age.
My child can count coins but not read the clock (or the reverse) — is that normal?
Yes, very common. The two skills develop separately; practice the weaker one with real coins or a real clock face before going back to the worksheet.
Can I buy the Grade 2 Time & Money worksheets on their own?
Yes — you can get the standalone Grade 2 Time & Money pack (3 worksheets + answer keys) or save with the full K-4 Time & Money bundle covering all five grades.
What grades does the bundle cover?
Kindergarten through Grade 4 — telling time to the hour, then half-hour, then 5-minute intervals with coins, then counting coins, then elapsed time and money word problems.
Is an answer key included?
Yes, every worksheet in the bundle (and the free sample above) comes with a matching answer key.
