It covers how I started by doing a Sunday Paper and Fruit & Veg rounds. Using this extra pocket money to buy camping gear and later start my hobby building Crystal Radios from kits bought from the Radio Ham Shop. In my 2nd year at High School borrowed and built the transistor circuits, learned their theory of operation and changed components and observed changes.
This knowledge helped me pass the apprenticeship tests. Out of 600+ applicants being 1 off 10 an apprenticeship. This covered the first 6 years of my working life.

My students love playing this board game on the topic of Taschengeld/Argent de poche.
There are loads of ways of playing it but here are a couple!
1. Students work in groups of 2 or 3. They take it in turns to roll the dice. Students must say a sentence to describe what they have landed on. It is the first person to get to the end of the board game.
2. Students work in groups of 2 or 3. They are given a certain about of play money e.g. 100 euros. They must say a sentence to describe what they land on. If they land on a money square, they pick up this amount of money from the 'banker'. If it is a spending square, they must give that amount of money to the 'banker'. It is the person with the most money at the end of the game that wins.
