Saving & Spending Narrative Writing with Editing Checklist + BONUS STEAM Ideas

Looking for a low-prep, highly-engaging activity to help kids understand spending and saving money? The painful process of getting kids to write more is made easy when kids take ownership of the story.

Students use the provided matrix to choose how they'll earn money, how they'll save it, how they'll spend it, and how they can apply a lesson they've learned via a common saying about money! *Note, some students may require a basic explanation about what stocks, investments, and savings accounts are!

Space is provided for students to write out their story with a clear beginning, middle, and end. Extra writing pages are included for easy extension when needed. Teachers will love that metacognition is encouraged via the editing checkbox!

BUT DON'T STOP THERE! This product includes 4 extension activity ideas. These ideas draw on STEAM concepts to allow all kinds of learners to express their ideas.
