Help me give my students items that will help them learn about financial literacy through play.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Greene's classroom raised $348

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

The specific money items I am requesting for donation, including play money sets, board games related to finance, and interactive financial literacy tools, can have a transformative impact on our students' learning about financial literacy. These resources make abstract financial concepts tangible and relatable, allowing our transitional kindergartners to grasp these essential life skills more effectively.

The primary goal of our project is to teach financial literacy through play, recognizing that hands-on activities are the most engaging way to instill valuable money management skills in young minds.

By incorporating play-based learning, we aim to provide our students with practical skills that will serve them well throughout their lives.

What sets my students apart is their incredible imagination. Their boundless creativity allows us to infuse fun and excitement into financial literacy lessons, making them not only educational but also memorable. Additionally, the projector screen you can help provide will enable us to display educational videos and songs about counting money, enhancing the visual and auditory aspects of our lessons. The Teachers Pay Teachers gift card will be a valuable resource, allowing us to access high-quality teaching materials and lesson plans tailored to financial literacy. With your support, we can create an enriching and imaginative learning environment that equips our students with essential financial knowledge and skills.
