Financial Literacy in the Elementary Classroom – The Why, What, Where and How of incorporating this critically important but sometimes neglected topic in our lesson planning.
Participants discover how to take advantage of the many excellent Financial Literacy resources that are freely available to all Ontario teachers. Resources include complete lesson plans, videos, interactive games and quizzes, and much more! The presentation focuses on where and how to begin to build your financial toolkit, and on creating lesson plans that include Financial Literacy in a meaningful way that our students can relate to.
