Children learn from a very early age that money is what makes the world go round. They often struggle to understand that for most families, there is not an unlimited supply. Studies show that children are capable of comprehending money management from a very early age. This said, Northeastern Junior College’s Kids College is offering a “Money $marts” class for students this summer. Two sessions of the class are being held. One for children entering grades 1-4 and a second session for older children in grades 5-8. The classes will both be held on Monday, July 1st. The younger children will be taught from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m.and the older children will participate in an afternoon session from 1 to 4 p.m.
Instructor for these Smart Money classes will be Judy Snedeker, Director of Programs for the Rural Young Americans Center for Financial Education.
Learners will get a smart start on their financial future. This dynamic class will provide children with personal finance tools to help them today and in the future. They’ll learn how to budget, save, and spend wisely plus understand the keys to personal banking. Students will discuss personal finance and discover ways to give, save and spend.
If you have struggled to help your child understand money management, let Snedeker help you make your point with her innovative approach to learning. Cost is $25 per student and there is a June 26th registration deadline. Call 521-6900 to enroll your young learner in Money Smarts now.
