Introduction to Personal Finance & Money Skills
Wednesday, January 22: What is your favorite class so far this year? Students were given an introduction about PF & M and assigned the Financial Interview. They need to sit down with an adult, preferably a parent/guardian, and discuss the questions. NO ANSWERS need to be written down, the sheet needs to be signed and returned for full credit by Monday, 11/13.
Thursday, January 23: Bell Ringer - What do you consider to be a "wealthy" lifestyle?
Students participated in a game show called "How to Really Be a Millionaire." Where they were introduced to many of the concepts that will be discussed in this class. Friday, January 24: Bell Ringer - Why is it important to learn financial skills? Students watched a segment from Freaknonmics titled Incentives: Can Ninth Graders be Bribed to Succeed. Here they are learning about incentives and why getting an education can help them out in the long-run. |
