Our Fifth Grade curriculum ties into the Social Studies learning standards theme of "Our Nation, Our World."  By the end of the lessons, students should be able to see how technology is changing money, the role government plays in earning income, including how relationships with other countries can have an impact on workers. Additionally, students will learn about interest and credit cards. By teaching this unit, all Financial Literacy and Economics standards are met, coupled with many of the inquiry standards as well.
