Abstract
During this unit, students will embark on a journey to become "Money Masters." They'll explore real-world topics like the different jobs people have, how to distinguish between needs and wants, and how every decision comes with an opportunity cost. Through fun, hands-on activities, students will learn how to create a budget, save for important goals, and make smart choices about spending. By the end of the unit, they’ll have the tools they need to take charge of their own money and make responsible decisions now and in the future.
