Section A - Money Management & Consumer Awareness: Student's results for the Money Management & Consumer Awareness subsection indicate he was able to independently identify 2/4 common coins (nickel and quarter), identify 4/6 common currency bills (ten, hundred, five, and twenty). He was able to make simulated purchases in 1/5 opportunities and identify the correct change to receive back in a simulated purchase in 2/5

  • pportunities. When asked to identify a necessity vs. a luxury, he was only able to correctly identify 1/4 (transportation). He was

able to correctly identify identify items on sale in 1/6 opportunities. He was unable to independently identify using a coupon or buying an item on sale as ways to save money when making a purchase. Student might benefit from continued instruction and

  • pportunities to practice these skills.

Recommended Future Goals:

  • 1. The student will identify, name, and state the value of coins and bills to twenty dollars.
  • 2. The student will identify the necessary money needed to make simulated purchases.
  • 3. The student will differentiate a luxury from a necessity.
  • 4. The student will identify which is the sale price based on price tag.
