About This Webinar

As a result of the pandemic, students are increasingly aware that they aren’t being taught financial literacy in schools. According to CNBC, 45% of teenagers surveyed by Junior Achievement said that education was the TOP way to address economic opportunity, but only 10 states in the U.S. guarantee high school students access to a full semester of personal finance before graduation! In this session, Next Gen Personal Finance (NGPF) will share its most popular games, activities and lessons that can be used with students in grades 5 -12, both virtually and in person, to teach personal finance topics including financial algebra, the history of racism in finance, budgeting, paying for college, careers, investing, managing credit, insurance, taxes and more!

Great Ideas For Teaching Finance
I wished I would have learned this when I was in high school. I did take some business classes, but they never went into more detail.
