My students are beginning to grasp early math concepts such as addition, subtraction, learning how to count money. These are the basic skills they need to master in order to expand their knowledge in financial literacy. It is never too early to learn about financial literacy through technology! The tablets would allow my students to access financial literacy apps such as, Renegade Buggies. The app was designed by the National Center for Families Learning (NCFL) has earned a REVERE award, which honors "high quality resources that educate learners of all ages, in all media, and in all educational environments." The dynamic, fast-paced game teaches financial literacy with a focus on saving as much money as possible while grocery shopping. Students ride through urban terrain on a supercharged buggy, grabbing items from their shopping list and collecting coins and coupons. After crossing the finish line, the student checks out. If they make smart choices and safe enough money, they will take a trip to the virtual auto body shop. Here they can power up their buggy and rider with glow lights, a flashy stunt suit, or a kickin’ cowboy hat. Smart consumer strategies, such as comparing unit sizes and buying in bulk, are implemented into the game. I want to teach my students the skills they need to develop a strong foundation for lifelong financial competence. I created this project because I want to help my students discover the relationships of spending and saving. I strongly believe that in doing this, my students will begin to understand the value of money. My students are excited about money and learning how to spend their money and when to save it. What better way to teach my students about financial literacy than through play!
