All of the things I would like to purchase will be used to make personal finance a more interactive class for all participants. The play money will obviously be used as money within the classroom as we work on budgets, but so will the starburst and play-dough. We will create budgets with different amounts of "dough" learning that some people have to stretch their budgets more than others. The dice will be used for our final project where students will have to create a household budget based on the numbers they roll. How many children, single or married, college or technical school are just a couple examples of things that will determine their "future" in the project.
