Image Credit: http://www.classroomconnection.ca/mymoney.html Financial literacy is a "buzz" term that educators are hearing more and more. That's because knowing about debt, credit, and managing one's own money are skills that students are not receiving instruction on. If students are not learning these concepts at home or school, where are they supposed to learn them? Teachers need to find new and meaningful ways to integrate these concepts into their lessons.
Lucky for us, the Toronto Star has created activity books focused on financial literacy for both elementary and secondary students! You can find these downloadable, and printable documents at the link below: http://www.classroomconnection.ca/mymoney.html Also, follow "classroom connection" from the Toronto Star on Twitter for more resources! @starclassroom
