Remember: Money you earn comes from work. A gift is given, not earned.

Read and answer

Read the story first, then answer. Each picture of a coin is one coin.

Leo's lemonade standLeo's old ball had a hole, pssssst! A new ball in the shop cost twelve coins, and Leo had no coins at all. "You can earn it," said a grown-up. To earn means to get coins for work. So Leo made lemonade, set up a stand and painted a sign. On Monday he earned two coins. On Tuesday he earned three. Wednesday was hot, hot, hot, and he earned five. On Thursday clouds covered the sun, and he earned four. Leo counted fourteen coins in all. The ball cost twelve, so he had two coins to spare. Boing! He bought the ball. Money you get for your work is earned. Birthday coins are a gift: they are given, not earned.
