Teaching finance with games
Teaching finance with games
I have a chance to do a summer club with middle school kids. I’ve got to teach basic financial management principles and introduce a basic stock market simulation, but it is supposed to be really fun.
Sooooo, what board games are particularly good for introducing some of these concepts? I’ve got $200 to buy this stuff, but can take donations as well!
And a second question: what can we do that will give kids a ‘take home’ project? Perhaps a paper/pencil version of a popular game? Make our game from scratch? Any ideas here?
BTW: The group is a dozen kids and one responsible adult (me) at a time.
And yes, I’m getting paid to play board games. :)
