‘How many of you would like to start a business when you grow up?’

I did not get quite as many raised hands as I did for:
‘How many of you would like to be rich?’

Then there was the young man who asked if you can get rich being a paleontologist?

As part of my Pigs Can F.L.Y. campaign, I visited Hansen Elementary School to meet the teachers and students where I’ll be presenting the Junior Achievement curriculum this month…1st grade, 2nd grade and 5th grade. It is truly a gas to be back in school.

If you have not yet taught a Junior Achievement program in school, take a look. You almost don’t need to know anything about teaching kids or financial literacy and business…the curriculum is all laid out and they have great activities. The teachers are excited.

This year is almost gone, but consider a new *school* year’s resolution to teach a JA class next year! I’ll report back after my first day!
