Financial literacy is a critical life skill, and sharing
Thinkfinity.org personal finance
lessons with students will prepare them to
be financially responsible adults. Learning about money can start with the
youngest students as they learn to count and
identify different types of money, and the differences between wants and needs. As students
progress to middle school and personal finances become more important, it is
crucial that they learn how checking and
savings accounts work, especially
online accounts. High school students benefit from understanding the power of compound
interest, as well as financial accounting, stocks and other economic factors.
April is
Financial Literacy Month. Help your
students be more financially literate with Thinkfinity.org’s special collection
of finance-related lessons and
interactive games.
