Junior Achievement

On Friday we had a special guest from Chase Bank, Miss Tricia. She was a volunteer with Junior Achievement, an organization to teach and promote busisness practices to children. She taught us lots of things about money -- what is looks like, how to make money, how we spend money and most importantly how to save money!
She read lots of stories and brought some cool activities, like scratch cards to identify money and stickers. Then  she spoiled us rotten with our own piggy banks, snacks and good job certificates! Thanks for taking the day off and spending it with us. You were awesome, Miss Tricia!
