Enhancing Math and Financial Literacy in Kindergarten
Help me give my students items such as dice for number games, books that introduce financial concepts in an age-appropriate way, and a pocket chart to create a classroom “banking” system.

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 Project
In our kindergarten classroom, we are excited to introduce hands-on math tools and resources that will help our students build essential math skills and an understanding of financial literacy from an early age. We are seeking support to provide items such as dice for number games, books that introduce financial concepts in an age-appropriate way, and a pocket chart to create a classroom “banking” system. These tools will help make math concepts tangible and engaging for young learners.
By incorporating these resources, we aim to teach our students the basics of counting, addition, and money management through interactive and playful learning experiences.
Your support will empower our students to develop confidence in their math skills while learning the value of saving and spending in a fun and meaningful way.
Thank you for helping us create an enriching and supportive environment for our young learners!
