We will begin slowly but then venture out around the town if the weather allows. When it rains we will cover maintenance and share fun videos of biking around the world. VerMoney (5th-8th)- One of the best things we can do for young people is to give them the skills and knowledge they will need in life, including financial literacy. Teaching students financial concepts early can positively influence how they manage their finances throughout their lives. This curriculum helps young people reflect on the differences between wants and needs and engages them in making choices about money. Movie Education (5th-8th)-What kind of movies do you like? Animated? SciFi? Sports? Super Heroes? We got it! What do you like in a movie? Storyline? Special effects? Soundtrack?
