My Project
I will be teaching middle school students the importance of money management. When students learn personal finance at a young age, it helps them make better decisions, take an interest in percentages, and chart growth on a graph.
Students learning about budgeting and investing helps empower them to make smart financial decisions at an early age.
We will also cover topics like Roth IRAs, which can help them save for retirement with a good Return on Investment (ROI).
The financial books will supplement our unit. The plastic storage containers will help keep students finance items organized by table group. They will help insure students have all supplies they need and not leave anything at home. The adhesive hooks will be used to hang anchor charts around the classroom and graph paper will help students chart potential growth or interest in different options for investing, and index cards will be used for note-taking.
My goal is to help set up students for a financially secure future! And get them excited about math!
