💵🎲 Mrs. Payne’s Math of Finance students went cashless today with a game of Monopoly! Instead of paying with paper money, every transaction had to be completed by writing a check.

Earlier this week, students learned the basics of checks—what they are used for, the different parts of a check, and how to correctly write and deposit one.

During the game, each player wrote checks to pay rent, buy properties, and handle other transactions, while also receiving checks from other players. Every payment was recorded on a ledger sheet, just like completing a real check register.

Hands-on learning = real-world financial skills! 📚✍️💳

Happy National IT Professionals Day from 2nd Grade!! Mr. Jerry and Mr. Estep, we appreciate all of your hardwork and keeping our tech devices running smoothly and safely!
