Most people wait until life slaps them in the face to start figuring out money. In this session, we’re flipping the script. We’re going to play life… before life plays you. Join us for an interactive workshop introducing a hands-on financial literacy simulation where students clock in to work, earn a paycheck, budget their money, and “rent” classroom technology based on real-life costs. Students learn how to manage monthly income, sign lease agreements, make spending decisions, and understand the true cost of choices. This engaging, real-world experience builds financial responsibility, workforce readiness, and critical decision-making skills. Attend this session to see how you can bring this powerful, practical project back to your classroom.
