Financial literacy

Working as a Paraeducator in a severe disabilities class room, financial literacy isnt discussed often. However I believe it could be taught in the same manner as the very basic math lessons we use. Observing the coins, perhaps clapping out their value and trading them for preferred items.
Most days We use what we refer to as a token economy board. It's a visual tool to help the student know when a task is complete, and look forward to a reward at the end.
 The board (6"x 6") will have 8 blank spaces, and  picture of a preferred item. After each task is completed, the student earns one token. When the board is full the student has earned preferred item.
With my own son we started with reward for chores completed, and an envelope system. One each for Saving, giving, and spending. He argued for an allowance, we countered with, if you work, you earn.

If link you're up to date on the latest and greatest in the auction world, you might've caught wind of how Philipps will be offering a link curated selection of timepieces manufactured by Swatch for private sale. As a big fan of all things Swatch, and their borderline irreverence as a whole, I was tickled pink to hear this news. Since the watches link don't go on sale until the 25th of October, I thought I'd point you in the direction of a particularly interesting piece to tide you over in the meantime.

Given that bowl season will officially come to link an link end this evening at the Cotton Bowl, this Movado made for the 1966 Sun Bowl caught my attention. It's a fairly standard Movado wristwatch with a water-resistant case, but the huge Sun Bowl logo, right in the center of the dial, is quite striking. If I hadn't found a watch to buy at the Antique Show yesterday, link I would probably have jumped on this one myself. My gain is now your gain.
