Beginner Level
This is a first lesson in identifying and evaluating wants & needs and how we make money decisions. We will do two exercises in our 20-minute class: 1. Identifying needs and wants 2. Going shopping! This class includes a worksheet as well as resources for parents to use at home. Mrs. Alyx is a CFP professional and Financial Advisor who has taught money and finance classes from preschool to College level. Using interactive visuals and questions, learners will go through exercises to help with these first money concepts. This class is suitable for learners ages 4-6 from anywhere in the world, and no previous money experience is required.
Learning Goals
Learners will be introduced to the concepts of money decisions, in the context of what we *need* (to survive or to do our jobs/go to school) and what is a negotiable *want*.
