Financial Literacy in Content Area

Denise F. Young
Financial literacy may be taught in several of my classes.  I see it in Single Survival class as preparation of my students understanding the importance of managing their paychecks so they will have money for their needs and wants.  I see it in Family Living class as two people join together to build a home on the needs and wants for their family.  Parenting is another area that I could teach financial literacy so that the students can pass financial planning on to their children at an early age.

Budgets, banking, savings, borrowing, credit scores are just some of the things that I can see going into my classes to better prepare my students to be financial sound in their adult lives.
