Bowman's Budget and Saving Project

Help me give my students headphones, stylus pens, easel pads, earbuds, fidget, and other incentives to budget and save for things they want.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Bowman's classroom raised $964

This project is fully funded

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Help me support my students as they learn about saving and budgeting. My students will be able to use these skills in real life and assist their families while shopping.

The items on my list will help provide incentives for my students to become engaged and knowledgeable about budgeting and saving for something while setting goals.

The items purchased will be given a monetary value and set up like a store. Students will be able to earn points by completing work, and being engaged in the school's character program "Leader in Me".

Ms. Bowman Granada Elementary School-East Grades 6-8

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
