Piggy Bank provides students practice adding money.

Choose the coins that add up to the amount of money on the screen. As the coins fall from the top of the screen, choose coins that add up to the total on the right. When they add up, the coins will release and a new amount appears. If too many coins stack up, the game is over. When the bank is full, you win.
