Special Needs Students Need a Cash Register and Magnetic Money

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our special needs 3rd grade students need a talking cash register and large magnetic play money. Many of the students are working on financial literacy math goals. It will help them to learn what the value of coins and paper money are. Our students learn better with hands-on materials. The Learning Resources cash register will allow them to play money games. One of the games they can play is by listening to the cash register requesting a coin and the student puts the desired coin in the slot. The cash register will tell them if they choose the correct coin.
