Financial literacy.

Over the past two terms, we mastered important financial skills, from quick calculations to long-term planning. We learned that being financially literate means being a detective (spotting deals), a planner (making budgets), and a critical thinker (avoiding money traps)! 

We improved our ability to handle complex transactions and calculate costs and change accurately. We became Discount Detectives, learning how to apply percentages to find the sale price, and even how to work backward to find the original price!

Our group project required us to plan a significant financial event- small buisiness

Project Summary

1. Our Project Goal Was: was to make cookies for pocket money.

2. The Biggest Expense We Budgeted For Was: The most expensive item was butter at 8.50$

3. The Most Important Math Skill We Used Was: Multiplication because we had to make sure we had the right amount of ingredients.

Before this unit, I thought money management was just about putting money into a project but it’s a lot to it.

Now, I understand that good financial literacy also involves lots of math and takes a lot of effort

I feel most confident now when calculating budgets because it’s easier than it sounds.
