Hi everyone, I'm a high school teacher trying to weave financial literacy into my content area lessons, and I'm focusing on budgeting next month. I want to use real-world examples—like utility bills or grocery receipts—to make it click for my students, but I'm not sure how to structure it. Should I bring in sample bills and have them build a mock budget, or is there a better way to tie it to their lives without getting too personal? Any ideas or activities that worked for you? Thanks so much! sprunki phase 5
