Teacher's Script: "Here's another mix of coins for us to explore. How does this array differ from the last one we saw? Can you sort these coins by type? Let's count how many of each coin we have. Now, let's calculate the total value. How might we do this efficiently? This exercise helps us practice our counting, sorting, and addition skills with money!"
