What would you do if you earned $20? Save it, spend it, or maybe even make it grow? In this class, students learn how to make smart choices with money through fun, hands-on activities, interactive games, and real-world challenges. We will explore important money skills such as earning, saving, spending, budgeting, investing, and understanding the difference between needs and wants. Students will practice making financial decisions and see how small choices can add up over time through simulations and problem-solving activities. By the end of the session, students will have a better understanding of how money works and the confidence to make thoughtful, responsible choices.

About Your Extraordinary Saturday (YES)

For 1st – 5th Grade Students

A New Adventure Every Weekend

MITY's program for elementary students enables inquisitive, high achieving 1st - 5th grade students to continue learning outside of the traditional classroom.  Courses are intentionally designed to inspire inquiry, activate imaginations, and engage eager learners in hands on discovery that is not possible within a regular classroom setting.  While students are in class, parents are invited to listen to professional speakers on topics related to raising bright children, socialize with other parents, or visit a local coffee shop.
