Hyperinflation has very little to do with the situation we're in (it's basically always the result of a government being forced at gunpoint to pay off a debt to an external creditor), but I guess that's a little too complicated for middle school

Not quite. Money requires a somewhat constant value to be useful. It's worth selling something for 100$ if I can buy something of roughly the same value the next month, it's may not worth the trouble if my 100$ would buy roughly half as much next month.

The problem with hyperinflation isn't that a zero gets added every month, it's that any money you may have will be worth a 1/10 next month, making any savings impossible.
