We will discuss the parts of a budget and what information will be needed to complete each section. Students will then create their own budgets using a template in Google Sheets. We will then discuss methods for tracking spending throughout the month so that we can stay on budget. Finally, we will discuss how to evaluate our budgets at the end of the month in order to make any needed adjustments.
