A person can profit from having a solid understanding of money and budgeting and saving techniques for the rest of their life.
Unfortunately, a lot of people lack certain abilities or knowledge, which can make life more difficult in a variety of ways.
Shelby Lattimore, a third-grade teacher in Charlotte, North Carolina, saw that a lot of people
lack financial literacy and made it her mission to educate the next generation of financial literacy.
Shelby remarked, ‘I saw that there were holes in the sense that, like, they didn’t know what change was.’
‘They had no idea what a receipt was. They were unaware that saving was necessary for rewards. You know,
things go more expensive the following week or the week after that, so they’re budgeting. At that point, I began to add items.
The children are seen offering Shelby “rent” in the form of toy money in the YouTube video.
Shelby reports that she has had nothing but great feedback from parents on her courses on money and financial literacy.
They are appreciative that at such an early age, their children are learning how to save and budget.
What a resourceful educator who saw a gap in the curriculum and quickly filled it with an engaging and innovative manner to teach her kids.
Lessons and skills are always retained by pupils when learning is enjoyable and engaging.
