CHAPTER

People earn money for many reasons. People earn

money to buy things they need for their family. A

family needs a place to live. A family needs food

and clothes.

People also earn money to buy things they want.

Someone might want to buy tickets to a movie.

Another person might want to buy popcorn. People

earn money to buy things they need and things

they want.

Why People

Earn Money

Why People

Earn Money

People earn money for things they want.

A person earns money by working at a job .

Some jobs can be done in a few hours or days.

At the end of the job, the person is paid for the

work done.

Other jobs are done every day. Some jobs are

done outside. People may work on farms outside.

Sometimes people who build houses work outside.

There are jobs that can be done inside, too. A

person may go to a store or to an office to do

the work. If someone likes to talk to people, they

may choose to work as a salesperson in a store.

For some jobs, a person may go to school a

long time. It takes special skills to be a doctor

or teacher. But for each job, the person earns

money. Then they can buy what they need and

some things they want.

CHAPTER

Many jobs must be done by a grown-up person.

Only an adult can be a police officer or dentist.

But are there jobs kids can do? Yes! There are

lots of jobs for kids.

To decide what job may be right, kids might ask

themselves these questions.

Do I like to be inside or outside?

Do I like animals?

Am I good at talking to adults?

There are many jobs kids can do.

Jaden likes animals. His grandmother has a dog

named Oscar. Jaden offers to wash Oscar once a

week. His grandmother agrees to pay Jaden one

dollar each time. Jaden and Oscar both like this

job!

Emily enjoys being outside. Her mother does not

have time to take care of the garden. Now Emily

is paid two dollars for each hour that she weeds

and waters the garden. If Emily wants to earn $8

to go to a movie, she knows she must work four

hours to earn the money.

$2 x hours = $8
