Ms. Prinz’s 5th grade class at Cairo-Durham Elementary School was lucky to receive a Financial Literacy Workshop from Broadview Federal Credit Union!
Students were tasked with working in groups to find a way to make food and help others. Throughout the lesson, students were taught how to budget, the cost of goods, what it’s like to calculate the startup of a farm and/or goal, and how they can take their business endeavor and help others.
The students then had the opportunity to use some robot friends to play around with and were tasked with finding a way for their robots to help their farms. Once students finished all of their budgeting and business hard work, they then got to play with their robots and present to other 5th grade students what their plan was and how their robot would help them! Way to go, Mustangs!
