JA More than Money® introduces students to financial literacy and entrepreneurship, and to social studies learning objectives that include money-management skills, goods and services, and global markets. Through hands-on activities and a JA cast of characters serving as symbols for financial literacy and entrepreneurship concepts, students learn a practical approach to starting a business and making smart decisions about managing money.
Following participation in the learning experience, students will be able to:
-- Identify the role of money in everyday life.
-- Think like entrepreneurs and identify a small business they can start.
-- Learn the basic steps of starting a business.
-- Consider the advantages and disadvantages of borrowing money.
