Teaching kindergarten students about money is easier said than done. Kindergarten students benefit by learning things many different ways; listening, seeing and most importantly, hands on. My class needs money manipulative's and cash registers to aide them in learning about financial literacy.
I have an energetic class full of 20 students.
They are all different; some learn by seeing and hearing something one time, and they've got it. Others need more to remember the information; seeing and hearing it, as well as putting it in their hands to do it.
My Project
I am requesting financial literacy materials to help teach my kindergarten students about the value of money. These materials include cash registers, coin stamps and paper money. These materials will allow students to learn about money several different ways.
As adults, we know that being in control of your finances is very important.
The sooner students understand why we have money and its value, the better off they are. These hands on financial literacy tools will help students begin their healthy, financial journey.
