Lizeth GeorgeTo celebrate Financial Literacy Month, the Southeastern Credit Union Foundation (SECUF) is excited to offer the new and improved Books Make Cent$ program. This initiative is an interactive way to introduce students to credit unions and basic financial concepts, while building relationships with schools and community partners. The Books Make Cent$ program provides book recommendations and associated lesson plans for preschool, elementary, and middle school levels.
This week’s featured book is The Missing Money: Money Monsters which helps 3 to 5-year-old students learn about ATMs, saving, and earning. The Missing Money: Money Monsters is an illustrated children’s book about an imaginative little boy’s first encounter with the banking system.
In addition to providing these financial-related books, we will also include lesson plans to pair with each book, making this an optimal student engagement opportunity.
These free materials are available for download here.
