Spending and Saving and Earning Money Game Financial Literacy

This Interactive Google Slides presentation is great for introducing your kindergarteners and 1st grade students to the economic concepts of personal finance. Distinguishing between real world situations of saving and spending and earning at a young age lays a good economic foundation for your student's financial education.

This game could be played whole group as a preview to your personal finance unit, and then whole group again as a review to take anecdotal records. You could also drop it onto your student devices to be used individually or in pairs.

After the introduction and 3 definitions, each slide presents one situation, and the student needs to push the icon for spend or save or earn. The slides are self-correcting, so they must keep trying and get it right before moving on.

Teachers: Please make sure the kids play the game in SLIDESHOW mode, so the links work easily.

Here's what you'll get:

✅ Economic term definitions

✅ 70 interactive google slides

✅ real-life situation examples from primary kids lives

✅ 3 choices each slide

✅ each slide is self-correcting

✅ 2 different response sheets
