Celebrating 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 students are learning the basics of financial literacy. We are learning to add, subtract, and compare numbers. We are also learning the value of coins and adding and subtracting money. All of these concepts are the foundation of financial literacy. My students will be able to create a savings plan and budget to purchase their favorite items from the class store. This slime and playdough will be sold in the class store. The ziplocks will keep the playdough fresh!
By opening a real-world store in my class, I am teaching my students to save money and budget for their wants.
The opportunity to "buy" and do some long-term savings for their own favorite items will be very motivating for my second graders to learn the basics of financial literacy. My students will be able to experience the importance of financial literacy education. I can't wait to open the class store!
