PART I—Vocabulary/Concept Development 1 Begin by telling this story: Pretend you owned two big dogs, Digger and Dreamer. Each of the dogs went to work every day at the We Dig Holes company. Digger was a very good worker. He loved digging holes. Every day he dug exactly five holes and every day he earned exactly $5, which he brought home to you. Dreamer also loved digging holes, but he also liked to take naps under the big shade tree. So on some days Dreamer dug six holes and earned $6, which he brought home to you. Some days he dug eight holes and earned $8. And one day he even dug 10 holes and earned $10. However, on some days instead of digging holes, Dreamer napped under the big shade tree. And on those days, Dreamer didn’t earn any money, and he didn’t bring any money home to you. But at the end of every day, Digger and Dreamer both give you big, sloppy, wet dog kisses, and you just laugh while you give them their favorite doggy treats. Digger and Dreamer are a lot like savers and investors. Like Digger, savers put their money to work in a bank or credit union, where it earns the same amount of money every day. But like Dreamer, investors put their money into businesses to help them grow and be successful. Sometimes the businesses are very successful and the investor earns a lot of money. But if the business doesn’t do well, the investor may not make any money and could even lose all the money that he put into the business. 2 Introduce the following vocabulary words: Savings—money deposited in an account at a bank or credit union. The money earns a stated amount of interest. Account—a record of any savings or investment Investments—money deposited into an account that represents a business. This money can earn dividends if the business does well, but money can be lost if the business does not do well. Principal—amount of money that is put into an account. This is the money that you put to work. Objective Define and identify the differences between saving and investing Evaluate the risks associated with investments Explore the costs of using credit cards to make purchases Time 45 Minutes Materials Dollar Dilemmas, printable Dice Coins Paper Pencil Road to Riches Game, optional Cash Cards Interactive, optional Lesson | Smart Saving Interest—amount of money that the principal earns on a savings account Dividend—amount of money that the principal earns on an investment Deposit—to put money into an account Withdraw—to take money out of an account Balance—amount of money that remains in the account at any time PART II—Hands-On Activity 1 Activity 1 will simulate the growth of money in a savings account. Explain to students that saving money is part of a greater plan. People may save money for many reasons. They may want to buy a car, so they save enough money to buy the car. Or they want to go on a vacation, so they save enough money to go on the vacation. In this game, the goal is for students to save $25 so that they can buy themselves a special treat. Students play in teams of two or three players. Materials needed: 1 die and 1 coin (or two-sided counter) for each team. The banker on each team also needs paper and a pencil. The job of the banker is to write down only the money “saved” by each player and to keep a running total for each player. (The banker may also be a player.) How to Play: Players take turns rolling the die and then flipping the coin. The die is rolled first. The number on the die is the number of dollars the player has received. The player then flips the coin. If it is tails, it means the player has chosen to WITHDRAW money from the banks and SPEND it, and the banker does not record anything for that player. If the coin is flipped heads, it means the player has chosen to SAVE the money, and the banker adds the number of dollars to that player’s account. When a player reaches a total of $10 in his or her account a BONUS of $1 is added to the total. When a player reaches a total of $20 in his or her account a BONUS of $2 is added to the total. The first player to SAVE $25 wins the game. 2 Activity 2 will simulate the steady growth of money in a savings account contrasted with the risks of investing money in a business. In this game, the goal is for a student to grow BONUS • Your students can work their way through the world of saving, giving, and budgeting with the interactive Road to Riches adventure game! And have your students practice their vocabulary with these interactive Cash Cards.
