Financial Literacy

Crista Mahoney
Living in an area where poverty is predominant I understand that some parents might not have a good since of how finance works and in turn will end up having children that will be in poverty. With schools explain where they can about money and credit cards they can help these kids have a healthy view of money. At the school I work in they do Dojo points and one teacher calls it "getting paid" when she catches the kids doing what is expected and good behavior. It is good for these kids to see the possitive and it works in her class. On Fridays if they earned it they get a "special" playtime in the gym.
