Teaching money to first graders is an important step in their financial literacy journey. It helps them understand the value of money, how to count and use coins and bills, and how to make simple purchases. There are many ways to teach money to first graders, and the most effective methods are those that are fun and engaging.
One of the best ways to teach money to first graders is through play. You can use play money or real coins and bills to set up a store or restaurant. Let the children take turns being the cashier and the customer. This will help them learn how to count money, make change, and interact with customers.
