These 5th grade students develop their own financial goals and savings plans in this lesson that integrates financial literacy and mathematics. Teacher Barbara Goldstein invites students to consider long- and short-term goals, compare different vehicles for saving, and figure out how to reach a financial goal. Students work in small groups to set goals, calculate savings amounts and fill out a financial statement of accounts.
Standard D, grades 5-8
