Classroom Economy - Complete Resource Pack

Looking to introduce a classroom economy into your classroom? This complete, ready to use resource pack contains everything you need to create your own classroom cash reward system, encouraging pupils to earn, save, spend and manage their own money while developing important skills for learning, life and work.

This system allows pupils to earn classroom cash and then choose whether to spend their earnings on rewards and privileges or save towards bigger goals and savings awards.

It is a fun way to encourage independence, responsibility, positive behaviour, financial awareness, decision-making, saving and goal setting - while giving pupils ownership over the rewards they work towards.

WHAT’S INCLUDED?

• Classroom Cash
  A complete set of printable physical classroom cash notes in different denominations, ready to print, cut out and use.
  TWO versions are included:
  Blonde teacher bitmoji
  Brunette teacher bitmoji

This makes the resource much easier for different teachers to use while keeping the same Classroom Cash design throughout.

• Classroom Economy Display Posters
  A selection of coordinating posters to introduce and explain the system to pupils, including:
  Welcome to our classroom economy
  An explanation of how it works
  How I can earn classroom cash
  Everyday expectations
  Why do we do this?

This can be displayed together to create a complete classroom economy display area.

• Savings Certificates
  Printable certificates pupils can work towards as their classroom cash savings grow.
  TWO versions are included:
  Blonde teacher bitmoji
  Brunette teacher bitmoji

• Classroom Reward and Privilege Vouchers
  A range of printable vouchers pupils can purchase using their classroom cash. Rewards include a mixture of fun classroom privileges and experiences.
  This means you classroom shop doesn’t need to rely entirely on teachers continually buying physical prizes. (Charity shops are your best friend!)

• Classroom Shop Price tags
  Matching printable classroom cash price tags are included to help set up your classroom shop or reward trolley.

WHY USE A CLASSROOM ECONOMY?
A classroom economy adds an extra real-life element to your reward system while encouraging pupils to think carefully about their choices.
“Do I spend classroom cash now or save for something bigger?”
“Do I want small rewards today or work towards my next savings certificate?”
These simple decisions introduce pupils to the idea of budgeting, delayed gratification and making responsible financial choices in an age-appropriate and engaging way!

PRINT! DISPLAY! START EARNING!
Simply print the resources you would like to use, introduce your classroom economy to your class and decide together what rewards they would like to work towards.
This pack has been designed with a clean, modern and consistent style, making it particularly suitable for upper primary classrooms while still being adaptable to other stages.
