These are great topics!  It would be wonderful if an instructor could use fake money or have a financial institution literally visit the classroom to help students practice.  

It probably isn't allowed anymore, but when I was in 2nd grade in California, we actually brought money to school once a week and the bank opened a station there where we deposited money, recorded it and established our first savings accounts.  We had budgets for allocating allowance, too.  To replicate that would really bring finances to life.
