Timing Our Financial Freedom

Help me give my students financial literacy transition activities and timers to keep us on track!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Bell's classroom raised $270

My Project

An area that my students in special education are always need assistance in is finding fiancial literacy activities that are meaningful to them that can be completed in a short amount of time. Financial literacy plays a huge part in their legally mandated transition activities, so this project will help them be the best they can.

By funding this project, you are helping our students obtain a gift card to purchase financial literacy lessons and visual timers to help us keep on track when it comes to getting them done.

A number of my students require the use of a visual timer and have a hard time working on assignments involving money. Through the use of a visual timer, the students will have the ability to track of the time it takes to complete an assignment and be able to pace themselves through their completion. I can also use the clocks to help reinforce task completion, positive motivation, and much more.
