Class Experience

Financial Fables are entertaining stories that combine reading, economics and personal finance into life lessons that feature "money morals." Through quick, interactive online tales, students can learn useful financial management skills that will better prepare them for the future.

Lesson 1 - Penny Pigeon and the Missing Nest Egg 
Lesson 2 - Oscar Ostrich Faces the Future
Lesson 3 - Shopping Wisely with Olivia Owl
Lesson 4 - Percy Peacock and the Credit Crisis 

Students are introduced to the financial fables. After discussing fable components, they read a financial fable online and complete a graphic organizer to summarize the story. Students explain the “money moral” at the end of the fable and discuss how it could apply to their own lives.

1. Define need, saving, and financial goal.

🍎 Mrs. Lauren - I'm a K-8 certified teacher in the state of Michigan and have been a teacher since 2011. I have a Masters degree in Teaching and Curriculum with an Educational Technology concentration and a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. Both degrees are from Michigan State University.

In my teaching career, I also have experience in middle school Math and English Language Arts, along with the general elementary classroom. On Outschool, I have taught various technology classes since summer 2020, including typing/keyboarding, Google Slides design, and coding.

I'm very passionate about technology in education and I love teaching young students about all sorts of tech programs and skills - typing and word processing, slide shows and other presentations, graphic design, spreadsheets, website creation, video editing, coding, and more. My goal is to help students build new tech skills, apply them in creative ways, and have lots of fun while learning!

🍎Mrs. Lisa T. - Hello, my name is Mrs. Lisa and I'm an experienced educator with a diverse background. My areas of expertise and certification include Kindergarten through 6th grade teacher, 7th and 8th grade all four core areas, Gifted and Talented Teacher and Director of Education, Special Education Grades 4 through 12 specialist as well as building principal for PreK through 8th grade. During Covid shutdowns and quarantines I discovered that my students and I loved the online platform. I taught in a one to one school. Every student had a laptop as well as a school hotspot if their family asked for one.  I chose not to do the minimum "office hours" as my school required. I felt this did not meet my students' needs. I ran an online classroom during regular school hours as well as recorded the class for those students who were unable to connect with us or needed to hear the lesson more than once. My experience as a principal resulted in greatly improved learning for all students. The gifted students improved as well as those with learning disabilities. I believe in high expectations for all. High expectations that are attainable
