This class will teach learners about investing in the stock market and the different ways to do so. Throughout this course, students will have the opportunity to "buy" and "sell" stocks and track their changes. In the last class, students will share their results and compare them to the NASDAQ, S&P500, and DOW. I believe in teaching through conversation with students rather than lecturing so I can cater each class to the learners in that section. Students will work in groups on simulations and different discussion topics. Week 1: What is a stock? Introduction to investing and the stock market. Students will learn about supply and demand. Students will "buy" their first stocks. Week 2: What makes a stock's value go up or down? Students will work together on a simulation of a pretend company and decide what events make the value to increase or decrease. Week 3: What is a nest egg? How to live off of retirement savings. Students will look at the differences in various retirement accounts and the benefits of investing early. Week 4: What are the other ways of investing in the stock market? We will explore the S&P500, NASDAQ, and DOW Jones and compare their stock market "earnings" to these indexes. **Class meeting times are approximate

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
Hello,
My name is Amy Sneath and I am the creator of Moxie Learning. Our company of teachers aim to provide a world class education without the limits of physical location. We form true classroom communities that rival those of traditional school. Friendships and true connection alongside academic excellence are regular occurrences at Moxie Learning.
When I was in school, I fell victim to math phobia and believed I was "bad" at math. Now I pride myself on meeting students where they are at and building their confidence to see they can learn any concept. I have experience in traditional 3rd and 4th grade classrooms teaching math and have seen first hand the difference in student achievement when they build confidence in themselves. This creates a life long love of learning which is even more valuable than the specific skills they will learn in my classroom.
Our team of teachers have several years of online educational experience in various grade levels and subjects. Both of our teachers graduated college with honors and are life long learners themselves. We are excited to share our love of learning with your children!
