My students are so excited about learning! They strive to implement everything we practice in the classroom, so it is important that they have a deep understanding of financial literacy to enhance their lives as future members of the financial system.
The resources I am requesting will help to build their understanding of financial literacy topics through play, stories, the use of manipulatives, and engaging strategies.
The books will help them think about real world situations that focus on what to do with money to get the most out of it. The magnetic money will help them practice the denominations and their values, and the practice workbooks will be useful in sharing their thinking and analyzing situations related to finance. Thank you for considering our first grade class and our unique needs to prepare for a future of financial independence and success!
