Hello my wonderful Grade 5 superstar! 👋
I'm Kashef and today we're learning about Saving Goals! A saving goal is something special you want to buy or do, and you save your money step by step until you can get it. Setting goals helps us be patient and smart with money. Ready to set some exciting goals? Let’s go! 🚀
🎯 What is a Saving Goal?
A saving goal is a clear plan: “I want to buy ___ and it costs ___ dollars. I will save ___ dollars every week.”
Cost: $45
I save $5 every week
Time needed: 9 weeks
📝 How to Set a SMART Saving Goal
- Specific – “I want a new skateboard”
- Measurable – “It costs $65”
- Achievable – “I can save $5 per week”
- Relevant – “I will use it every day”
- Time-bound – “I want it in 3 months”
🎯 Let’s Set Some Saving Goals!
1. You want a new video game that costs $38. You get $6 allowance each week. How many weeks do you need to save?
2. A bike helmet costs $28. You already have $10 saved. How much more do you need to save?
3. You want to buy a gift for your mom that costs $25. You save $4 every week. How many weeks will it take?
