Each student gets assigned a monthly budget amount (from $1,700 to $5,000). They choose one of three options (cheap, medium, expensive) for each category: housing, food, transportation, electronics, & clothing.
They add up their spending and determine how much they save each month (and year).
They choose what luxury item they would save up for.
This lesson is full of bright and fun visuals and organized charts to ensure that the math is accessible to as many students as possible!
Math skills required:
- Adding up 5 different numbers (into the thousands place value)
- Subtracting 4-digit numbers
- Multiplying a 4-digit number by 12 to find a yearly amount

Model with mathematics. Mathematically proficient students can apply the mathematics they know to solve problems arising in everyday life, society, and the workplace. In early grades, this might be as simple as writing an addition equation to describe a situation. In middle grades, a student might apply proportional reasoning to plan a school event or analyze a problem in the community. By high school, a student might use geometry to solve a design problem or use a function to describe how one quantity of interest depends on another. Mathematically proficient students who can apply what they know are comfortable making assumptions and approximations to simplify a complicated situation, realizing that these may need revision later. They are able to identify important quantities in a practical situation and map their relationships using such tools as diagrams, two-way tables, graphs, flowcharts and formulas. They can analyze those relationships mathematically to draw conclusions. They routinely interpret their mathematical results in the context of the situation and reflect on whether the results make sense, possibly improving the model if it has not served its purpose.
