ASB Getwise

This week Thursday we had someone from ASB getwise and teach us about how we can save and spend our money wisely. The person who came in to teach us was named Jayden. First he wrote out cash and we found words to suit in for each letter that are about money. C was for clear which is being specific about exactly what you want and making sure that the goal is clear. A was for action which means actually doing things to earn the money and taking action with the goal to get there. S was for save which is self explanatory and being responsible with how you save your money to get the amount you need for your goal. Lastly H was for how long which is how long it takes you to get the money and if you are not getting the amount you want then you can try the save process differently. We also did something where Jayden picked 2 volunteers from class and they got a flipbook that was about how much money they get per week, where they save, and the car that they got which was what their goal was. In the end person number 1 one because he saved in a bank. Sometimes throughout the lesson we would go through the 4 things of how we can spend our money wisely - Clear, Action, Save, and How long.

That's My Money

L.I: To manage finances and profit.

This week for maths we are still doing That's My Money. So far I have earned 133$ and 40c. I have been making more visual DLO's because that earns me a lot of money but still do a lot of prototec. On Wednesday we looked at the people who had the most money and Mr Wong gave them chocolates. Then we put other peoples names on a wheel and span it to randomly choose who would get chocolate. I was one of the people who it landed on and I got a moro chocolate. Then we did the disaster, and luckily no one got it and we also did the lotto and no one got the lotto too. 

That's My Money

L.I: To manage profits and finances.
This week for maths we are learning about money and doing activities or task to earn money and having to pay for specific things. For the next 2 weeks we have to save or try and earn as much money as we can. First Mr Wong told us how everything works, what happens and what you have to do. We all had to make a copy of a google sheet which had all that we need on it. You first start off with 50 dollars. Everyday that we do maths we have to pay insurance, and pay rent. For insurance you could choose High cover, Medium Cover or Low Cover. For rent you could go on the bench, table, floor or alcove but they all cost something. The bench costs 24 dollars, The Tables costs 20 dollars, the floor cost 28 dollars and the alcove costs 36 dollars. I sit at the tables because it is the cheapest option. To earn money you need to create a DLO or play prototec. I mostly play prototec because it is really easy. I do level 6 which is stage 6 because it is easy. I have to give proof to the teacher that I did it before I add it on. I only show the teacher when I have 100% but I can also go show him even if it is at 90% or more.
