Meeting #10 – Note to Parents

We have earned the Financial Literacy Leaf “Money Counts Badge”. Here is a link so you can see what the badge looks like http://gscwm.myshopify.com/products/daisy-money-counts-badge

In order to earn this leaf we did the following activities during our meeting:
  • Identified the name of each coin and how much it’s worth
  • Differences and similarities of the coins (penny, nickel, dime, quarter, dollar). Which is bigger, smaller, different color, etc.
  • How many of each coin you need to make a dollar
  • Talked about the different types of paper money and the way to identify its worth
  • Talked about the cost of fun, and fun things that we could do for free. We did 2
    craft activity on this subject.
  • Identified in an activity: things we need, and things we would like to have but don’t necessarily need
  • Drew a picture of something we could do to help someone
