Other Resources Mining Money - Lesson Plan Background Notes Although some miners worked independently in the early years, most miners worked for mining companies that paid them for their work. Workers were usually paid in cash. However, sometimes the Upper Peninsula's severe winter weather made it impossible to get the money to the mine to pay the miners. Also, money was scarce during hard times and depressions, including the Panic of 1893. When cash was hard to come by, some mining companies issued their own paper money, called scrip The scrip could be used in the company store to buy supplies miners needed for work, such boots or candles. Miners and their families could also buy food and household items with the scrip. Some towns had places where miners could exchange their scrip for U.S. currency for a fee of up to 10% of the amount. The exchanged scrip would then be sold back to the mining company. Objectives Students will describe scrip and its use to pay miners. Students will state differences between scrip and legal tender (money).

TITLE: SHOPPING AUTHOR: Cheryl J. Pembroke-Webster Elementary Special Education; Anchorage, Alaska OVERVIEW: I use this lesson to give the children a chance to apply what they have learned about money. I also use it to provide variety and incentive during review time of other skills. GRADE LEVEL/SUBJECT: Grades K-2, Math. PURPOSE: Students are often taught money skills through the use of worksheets. They're seldom given a chance to apply the skill in a realistic manner and often become bored with the drill of worksheets. This lesson provides them with practice opportunities prior to going into the community to shop. OBJECTIVE(s): Students will be able to: 1. Determine how much money they have in hand. 2. Find and read the price of a product. 3. Determine which product they would like to buy. 4. Determine if they have enough money for the item. 5. Count out the exact change or determine how much change they are due. RESOURCES/MATERIALS: Clean trash (empty soup cans, cereal boxes, vegetable cans, etc.) and stickers to use as price tags on items or index cards with prices to label the shelf the item is on. ACTIVITIES AND PROCEDURES: 1. Each child is given a set amount of change. The particular coins each is given is determined by which coins have already been introduced to them and which ones they have prior experience counting. Beginners start with pennies only. 2. Each child is given a set amount of work in any subject that they need extra practice on. I usually use computational math skills. How many problems need to be completed before visiting the store is determined on an individual basis by the difficulty of the work for each child and how long it will take them to complete it. 3. As the student completes the assigned number of problems (i.e. three addition problems), they bring the work and their change to the "store" where they count their money and decide what to buy while the teacher corrects the problems. The teacher or a student helper is then the store clerk and takes the change from the student. The student must tell the clerk how much change they are due, if any. The student then returns to their seat and completes another three addition problems (or whatever their assignment is) before returning to the store. TYING IT ALL TOGETHER: After each child has progressed at least through counting quarters, I like to take them on a field trip to practice these skills in the community. Each child is responsible for paying the correct fare upon boarding the city bus and if they can bring a small amount of money, they can actually buy something in the store. If they can't bring money they window shop and compare prices. This activity is good just before winter break as it affords the children a chance to shop for gifts without the family members around they want to buy for, although some years the children are not quite ready that soon in the school year.

How much money will people in each tax bracket save http://www.pbs.org/newshour/extra/teachers/lessonplans/general/tax_cut_5-07.html

UNDERSTANDING THE BUSH TAX CUT PLAN Critical Analysis, Research, and Problem Solving By Amy Lein, a Math and Special Education teacher at Newton North High School in Newton, Massachusetts. Background : When students hear/see/read about something that is happening in the news like proposed tax cuts, they rarely get all the data to help them make informed decisions. This is particularly true when the topic at hand has to do with numbers and calculations. All too often, people accept what they see/hear/read without checking the numbers themselves. This lesson was designed to get students to first question what they read, second investigate it, and third, analyze the results of their investigations to develop an informed opinion. Objective : Students will be able to calculate income tax rates, interpret data tables and tax tables, critically analyze articles detailing the tax cut plan, and write intelligently about how their own calculations and research led them to their opinions on important topics. Time : 2 class periods of approximately 1 hour each (without considering the lesson extensions.) Plus a possible homework assignment.
