High Finances In 5th Grade

My students need 9 math items such as Budget City, Checkbook Math, and Quizmo Making Change to help them manage their money now and in the future.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Adams's classroom raised $229

This project is fully funded

These preteens need tools and guidance to become successful money managers. Teenagers and teenage products are often targeted audiences for numerous products. Why not make these students knowledgable consumers as they enter the marketplace?

Faced with the current economic challenges, we need to educate our students to become savvy savers and spenders. These materials will allow my students to get their feet wet learning about money management prior to entering the job market.

Through your generosity, I will be able to reinforce the basic skills of counting money while furthering their learning with setting a budget, teaching them how to write checks,and about interest on loans and credit cards. This hands-on learning will captivate my students interest as we prepare them for the real world of business and economics.

Please support my students to become successful consumers. These are real life skills that will be valued each and every day.
