Making Money Make Sense in Middle School w/ Mr. Blake Teichmeier
Did you know that our Middle School students take financial literacy courses?
While we have personal finance classes at GISH, it’s really at the Middle School level that we see money starting to make sense for students.
For Mr. Blake Teichmeier, Middle School is the perfect time to start talking with students about money because of all the life exploration and opportunities that hit when a kid turns 13 and 14 years old. More importantly, he believes anchoring Financial Literacy concepts at the Middle School level gives students the confidence to become responsible decision makers.
Mr. Teichmeier is the Financial Literacy Teacher at Walnut Middle School. He joins our podcast to talk about how creativity, real world job simulations, and recreating a financial infrastructure in his classes helps students gain valuable money — and life — insights. He also shares the story of winning an award and start-up money for a special financial literacy project he’s been working on for a number of years.
Because it's not just about making sense out of money, it's about equipping students with what they need to be confident decision makers.
