My Project

My students are very precocious and eager to learn about mathematics and how finance relates to their real world. Due to limited resources, I want to be able to give them the opportunity and tools that can allow them to build better math and critical thinking skills.

Through learning money learning games my students will build financial literacy skills for the real world.

With flexible seating, my students will be able to play math money games that will increase their awareness of the importance of finance and help them to build skills that they will not only need for my class, but for a lifetime. The learning games will help build excitement and enthusiasm for my math centers that will increase their engagement time with the new tools and resources.
