5 Why Teach Personal Financial Literacy?
“Financial literacy is essential…to the economic health of our nation…Ensuring that young people have the skills they need to make wise financial choices… will help us build a stronger…future…We also know that a lack of financial literacy is a major roadblock on the path of college access and success for too many students.” (Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, September 2010.) What does this mean for your students? Why teach personal financial literacy? The last few years have really put personal financial literacy in the spotlight. The economy took a serious dip. Jobs became scarce. Foreclosures are at an all-time high. Credit is harder than ever to get. Many people are “upside down” in their debt, meaning they owe more each month than they bring home. This quote is from the Treasury press release on September 13, It addresses the very important idea that, along with reading, writing, math, science, and social studies, schools need to teach financial literacy. What does this mean for your students?

6 Teenage Spending The average teenager spends approximately $5,400 each year (National Endowment for Financial Education). Collectively, teenagers spend more than $172 billion annually – that’s billion! Today’s high school graduate will earn over $1 million in adulthood. Let’s take a closer look at teenage spending and see if our young people have the skills they need to make wise financial decisions.

7 When students go out on their own…
Health Insurance Get Creditworthy Budget Online Invest Live Small car low salary high rent clothes furniture When you’re young, out on your own for the first time, it’s tough. Here’s why: starter jobs come with low salaries, and increasingly without health insurance, rents are high, and they have to deal with a lot of hidden expenses: deadbeat roommates, weddings, travel, safety deposits, and needing everything from furniture to clothing, to a car all at the same time. So, we are going to talk about some of the most important things that young people need to know to get started on the right foot. wedding

8 Should Your Teen Have a Credit Card?

10 2009 Survey… Council for Economic Education - December 3, 2009
Here is a closer look at finance education in our nation’s schools. This is a Survey of the States 2009: Economic and Personal Finance Education in Our Nation's Schools Note the number of states with content standards for finance education -only 21 states had content standards in place in 1998…take a look at the jump in 2009, now 44 states have content standards established for finance education!!!! Council for Economic Education - December 3, 2009

14 Personal Financial Literacy Standards
Jump$tart Coalition Standards for Personal Financial Literacy CORE COMPETENCIES: Financial Responsibility and Decision Making Income and Careers Planning and Money Management Credit and Debt Risk Management and Insurance Saving and Investing The Jump$start Coalition, a national consortium of corporate, non-profit, education, and government organizations dedicated to financial literacy, has put together its list of National Personal Financial Literacy Standards. Here are the core competencies. The U.S. Department of Ed is using these standards to drive financial literacy standards.

15 What topics should Personal Finance Curriculum cover?
Income/Career Planning Financial Decisions and Planning Banking Credit Saving Investing Taxes This brings us to our next point of discussion—what topics should good personal finance education curriculum cover. No matter what the content standards of a given state are, these major topics have to be covered in a Personal Financial Literacy Course.

16 Grade Levels, Students, Course Length
General Curriculum: 9th or 10th grade Business Elective: depends on district Students Basic Levels: 9th or 10th graders; are not necessarily ready to pursue business as a major Advanced Levels: 11th or 12th grade; may have already decided to pursue a business degree Course Length Semester-long Year-long This is how the typical student/grade level breakdown looks for financial literacy courses. If the course is part of the graduation requirement within the general curriculum, meaning that it is taught as part of the Social Studies or Life Sciences curriculum, it is generally taught in either 9th or 10th grade. If it is a business elective course, not necessary for graduation, the grade level of students will depend on the district. As a basic finance course, it will probably be taught in 9th or 10th grade. As a more advanced course, it would be taught in 11th or 12th grade. There may even be cases in which two business elective finance courses are offered, a basic and an advanced course. Depending on district needs and state standards, your course may be a semester-long or a year-long one.

17 Managing Your Personal Finances, 6e
Our best-selling finance title Full year comprehensive approach 11th & 12th grades – for higher level business course Great for future business or finance majors In-depth exploration of finance topics from a business perspective Covers personal finance and life-long financial planning Most often used for business elective courses This is Managing Your Personal Finances. It is our best-selling finance book. It is a comprehensive text with over 700 pages of instruction. It is meant for a higher-level course and fits best within the 11th and 12th grade business elective slot. This is for your future business majors, students who already know that they want a career in accounting, finance, business management, etc. This book provides a business focus on personal financial planning, so if we think back on the differences between business focus and personal focus, this book is for students who are interested in how businesses manage finances. It also provides deep information on life-long financial planning, everything from banking and consumer purchases to serious coverage of saving, investing, building wealth, and estate planning. As you can tell, this book is intended to be used in the Business Education department; it is not meant for general curriculum courses.

18 Economic Education for Consumers, 4e
Full year comprehensive approach Suitable for 9th & 10th grades – intended for lower level business course Provides broad coverage of personal finance topics Covers consumer spending and wise purchasing Provides a business and personal focus for finance topics Can be used as part of general curriculum, but is intended for a business elective class Another great option for a finance course is Economic Education for Consumers. This text is also a full-year approach. However, this is meant for students in the 9th or 10th grade, who are not necessarily planning to become business majors. It is a much less dense text, intended for most students. If Managing Your Personal Finances offers a very deep understanding of finance, Economic Education for Consumers offers a broad one. It covers a large number of personal finance topics and provides excellent instruction without the expectation of future MBAs. There is quite a bit of coverage of consumer spending and purchasing topics, as well as all the other finance topics, so this book is perfect for a course where both the personal and the business focus is needed. Because of this, Economic Education for Consumers is the perfect book for either a business elective course or a general curriculum course.

19 Personal Financial Literacy, 2e
Suitable for one semester Intended for 9th and 10th grade students Meets the needs of Financial Literacy as a graduation requirement Intended for general curriculum Uses a personal focus on financial information Offers information on personal income, money management, spending, credit, and saving Finally, this is our newest personal finance text. It is completely unique because it was written specifically to meet the needs of a personal finance course that is part of the general graduation requirement. This is a one-semester course, intended for 9th or 10th grade students. There is no expectation of future business studies for these students. However, this book does an excellent job of preparing students for making smart decisions about money and developing good financial habits for life! Of course, this book uses a personal focus to teach everything from getting a job, career choices and income, spending, saving, building and using credit, investing, etc. The idea is to help students develop life-long understanding and comfort with financial decisions, really helping them understand the consequences of decision-making when it comes to their finances, for right now and for the future.

20 Text Title Course Length Grade Levels Covers
Managing Your Personal Finances Ryan, 6e Full year 11 and 12 Personal finance Deep coverage of finance topics Life-long financial planning Intended as Business elective High achieving students Economic Education for Consumers Miller and Stanford, 4e 9 and 10 Consumer spending Broader coverage of finance topics Wise purchasing Money management Lower achieving students Popular with Family and Consumer Science teachers Personal Financial Literacy Ryan, 2e One semester Meets general ed. requirement Broad coverage of finance topics Personal focus Income, money management, spending and credit, saving Here’s an example of how some of our Personal Finance Texts are broken down by grade level and course length. These three texts align to the Jump Start coalitions standards in Personal Financial Literacy. The one we will be focusing on today is the third one that you see on my screen. Personal Financial Literacy. This text meets the general education requirement for personal finance.

23 Using Free Resources Who created the resource? What education credentials do they have? What is the main purpose of these websites? Is the content based on curriculum standards? Will it help you meet these for your state? Is there a scope and sequence? Will you have to create your own materials to teach this content? Do you have time to do this? We have just spent almost an hour talking about the importance of financial literacy, the fact that it’s information and skills that your students desperately need in order to succeed. But the reality is that many of you are facing budget crises and you are expected to gather your instructional materials from “free sources.” As I already said, I understand. However, before you do, please ask yourselves and your administration these questions.

24 Using Free Resources Is there any training or professional development available with this content? How will you assess students using the free resource? How will your students practice and apply this content? How will your students connect this content with other academic subjects (integrated curriculum)? After thinking about all of these questions, you may still decide to use some free online resources to supplement your finance instruction. However, I hope that you can really see the benefits of having instructionally sound textbooks written by experts especially for high school students, correlated to your state standards, written to teach, rather than to sell something, which provide all the assessment and support you and your students need. Ultimately, this may be a case of “you get what you pay for.”
