The Bite of Reality money simulation transforms the classroom into a fun, interactive virtual city where teens adopt new identities. These new personas come with take home salaries along with obligations such as credit card and student loan debt, and maybe even a child! During the activity, students will have to navigate through financial decisions such as housing, transportation, kid care and food (along with others) and make some tough choices…while trying not to go broke!
To participate:
- A teacher would need access to Zoom (the class can view the screen as a group or individually).
- Each participant will need to download the free Bite of Reality 2 app onto a smart phone or tablet prior to the event.
- The appropriate age range would be from 12-18.
