Club 2-5-2 Fall Highlights






Club 2-5-2 is our afterschool program for 2nd through 5th graders. This is our 3rd school year running this program. This fall it is meeting on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. We have some amazing kids! My role is primarily teaching the "Money Matters" class. It is essentially a financial literacy class. We focus on coin & bill recognition, basic money math, making change, writing checks/balancing a checkbook, banking vs. currency exchanges, etc. I really enjoy it, and it is an ongoing challenge to teach these concepts in a way that connects with a 2nd grader & a 5th grader and every student in between. I am praying that God raises up some Jesus lovin, justice minded, community developin', pond owners!:)

We have a great group of volunteers assisting us this year. Roma & Pete oversee it, and they are doing a great job!
