We want to teach a one-period lesson to 5th6th7thand 8th graders on how to budget money. **Concept**: The general idea of our solution is to improve the budgeting ability of the children (when they grow up), so they do not owe debt to the bank. **Objective**: Our objective over all of this is to improve the management capability of adults. This will happen by teaching middle school students how to budget money, so they can be debt-free when they grow up. We will type out several worksheets for the kids to work on. This will provide them with easy answers about budgeting to urge them into becoming a debt-free adult. To keep the students attention, we will teach the lesson quickly so they do not bore. Then, they can finish the worksheet that we made on the computer. For the lesson we will show the students how to manage money. We will do this by first explaining the effects of budgeting by following a debt-full adult. We will display all the problems the adult can have including going bankrupt and not having enough money to pay for a grave stone. To close the lesson we will play game. Every person gets $300 play dollars. Then, they have to spend it on certain items. There may be 3 different products each different prices with different quality levels. All the items in the fake store will be based off the regular store items. Whoever has the most money and good quality gets a stuffed eagle as a prize.
