Finance Park Assignments - April 21

Today you GOT A LIFE!  Congratulations to all of you on this exciting development.  Now the hard work begins ... but we'll be covering that in detail, so just focus on what you can do now:
Assignments 2, 3, and 4 in your book
#2) Debit Cards, page 6
This assignment cannot be redone, so use your resources wisely!
#3) Credit Decisions, pages  19-20
Page 17 is a good resource, but so are your parents.  Understand that there are benefits and drawbacks and that it is important to recognize both in order to make good financial decisions.
Remember that you can change the "key," as long as you make a key on the page.  An example would be highlighting advantages in yellow and disadvantages in blue rather than underlining and circling.
#4) Time is on Your Side, pages 24-25
Page 22 is a good resource, but so are your parents.
Yes, it is as easy as reading the table and finding the answers for 1-3, but #4 requires you to use your resources wisely ... they are looking for a plan utilizing the specific three variables they list.

I will get the Finance Park tab of this blog up this week, but it probably won't be tonight.  Ditto with the baby chick tab ... so stay tuned!
See you all on Wednesday for the Specialist period; bring your Finance Park books to room #4 and we'll get to work!
Have ultra fun being 7th graders on Switch Day tomorrow,
Mo ;-)
