Good Morning Kindergarten! Yesterday we learned all about
what plants and animals need to survive. Today we are going to look more
closely at what people need. These first two videos are about the differences
between wants and needs.
Now that you know the difference between wants and needs,
watch If You Give A Pig a Pancake and see if you can figure out which things
that she asks for are wants and which are needs. https://youtu.be/GMMK0LX-nx4
Talking about wants and needs is one way of categorizing all
the things that we buy or spend money on. Another way is by splitting them into
goods and services. Let’s learn a little more about goods and services. https://youtu.be/Jd4kD9TicbA
Both goods and services can be a want or a need. For example,
a doctor’s visit is a service you need but a pizza delivery is a service you might
want. Now let’s look a little more closely at how people get goods and services
by buying them. https://youtu.be/qhSLI_Mjbus
Today we use money to buy things including digital money on
credit cards and on our phones, but the idea is the same. We give some money to
a person in order to get the things we want and need. For today’s activity, make
me a T chart with some things you want on one side and things you need on the
other. Don’t forget to spend some time reading practice books today and working
in your packet.
