My Project

The materials I have selected let alone the books are of great assistance for me to instill how significant Financial Education is. The books will serve as one of our go-to resources to enrich our understanding about financial wellness that would lead to our principle of not living paycheck by paycheck. I believe that my students will appreciate these resources because they will be exposed and religiously navigating themselves in the idea of making things a habit and that is reading to learn practical means. Alongside withe the other materials such as the individual folders and whiteboards, they will be essential tools for my students to showcase independence and responsibilities. In my class each students has a folder of where they will collect, keep, and do some reflections about the provided tasks. These folders remind them of how persevered and they surpassed all the challenges bestowed upon them during the academic year. Similarly, the boards will manifest their independence in sharing their understanding towards our topics. Henceforth, I am looking forward that my essentials shall be considered to fulfill my duties for my beloved students who are dreaming and waiting for various opportunities like this.
