Introduction: | People earn income many different ways. Most of the time income is earned by doing work. How do you get income? Do you earn (work) an allowance? Do you baby-sit? Do you keep your room clean? Do you wash dishes? What do you do with the income once you have it? Do you spend it all immediately? Do you spend some and save some? |
Development: | You will learn how you can earn income. On each math question you get right, on your own, on the daily math practice you will earn a penny. For each word problem you get right, on your own you will receive a nickel. At the end of the week, when we tally our daily progress record, you will be given the money you earn, play money, and put it in you piggy banks. The money can be used to pay for sharping your pencils, going to the bathroom, getting a drink of water, etc...The price list is by the door. If you do not have any money, when you use these services, they will be deducted from your weekly income. |
