My Project

What are you? A learner? A mathematician? A scientist? A reader? An artist? A teacher? A writer? Students are all of these things and more.

Second graders are awesome.

They are so excited to participate in school when hands-on approaches and technology are involved. They are smart and creative. They are excited to publish all types of stories and create all types of art. They are excited to learn math skills, science, social studies, spelling, grammar, reading, vocabulary, and physical skills. Second graders are the perfect age to foster a love of learning so that their love of learning may continue throughout their lives.

I know that my second graders are smart and creative, but I worry about their financial literacy. I want to help them learn now what being 'money smart' is. I want them to learn about money, jobs, savings, taxes, spending, and wants vs. needs. Students will use the books and iPads to learn about these topics. We need these tools to access information available on the internet and iPad apps to learn and practice.

Financial literacy is a critical need for students.

So many people are in debt and are in a financial crisis. I want my students to understand financial decisions now and how they will affect them in the future. I want them to understand the benefits of getting a good job, saving for a rainy day, staying out of debt, and making money work for them, not cause them problems. Thank you for considering helping us reach our goals.
