Not only are we learning how to earn, save and spend in our classroom but the idea of my students being able to share these experiences with their parents to help promote smart economic choices within their very own households. My students will learn how to work daily jobs, earn money and choose whether or not they want to spend or save money earned. With earned income from their classroom jobs, students will be responsible for paying their rent and the remaining funds will be utilized to purchase items from our classroom store.
Experiences in classroom economics will not only impact the lives of my students but their families as well!The items requested will be specific to the students' needs. For example, if a student is in need of crayons, pencils, headphones, etc., they will be able to use money earned to purchase these items from our classroom store. Literacy plays a huge role in our classroom on a daily basis. The books requested will help students continue to build upon skills such as letter recognition, letter sounds, building words and learning to read fluently. Snacks will also be available to purchase as well. After a hard days work, who wouldn't want to relax, in a corner with a good book and a snack at the end of a school day?
