Managing life’s financial aspects is vital to stability and success, so teaching students about money from an early age is essential. Personal finance components should be embedded into standards at each grade, and states should ensure high school graduates have completed a personal finance-specific course. Imagine Learning is here to help.
Students learn to identify coins by value and use grouping and counting strategies to determine the value of a collection of coins and bills.
Students are asked to describe the relationship between the availability or scarcity of resources and how that affects cost.
Students explore ways of paying for college, estimate costs, and devise a method to calculate the savings needed for college and the cost of repaying a loan.
Students identify and explain decisions involving income, spending, saving, credit, and charitable giving.
