Suggested Money Lesson Plan
for this Worksheet
Give students a lesson on interest and bank
savings accounts. Explain why people deposit money at banks and
other financial institutions.
Saving money at a bank or other institution
that takes deposits allows you to store your money with someone else. The
money that you earn for doing this is called Interest. Interest is a percentage of the amount you
have on deposit that you get on an annual, monthly or quarterly basis, as a
payment for allowing them to hold your money, and use it to lend to others. The more money you deposit, and the longer you
keep the money deposited, the more interest you will
earn, and the larger your account balance will grow. |
