Reflecting on our week:

We enjoyed playing in a little bit of snow.

Mrs. McCoy, from First Community Credit Union, came to deliver a Youth Finance Program on Friday.

 We talked about the old days of trading and why it didn't work out very well. Meet Farmer Max.

 Meet baker Grace.

 Meet Dr. Brayden

 Meet carpenter Daija.

Mrs. McCoy talked about why we went from trading to using money. She talked to us about counterfeit money and how banks can tell real money from fake money. She also gave us lots of fun free items like a piggy bank to help us save money.
