Description:

I desire that my students become good stewards of all the resources God has given them. Financial Building Blocks (FBB) intends to give students a strong foundation in Personal Finance which helps achieve this goal. High School is a critical time to develop an understanding of financial concepts which can develop good habits and prevent future devastating financial mistakes. This class will cover topics such as money values and tendencies, saving, banking, debt, budgeting, consumer awareness, investing, giving, and more. The teacher will use whole class activities, discussion, note-taking, video clips, games, and a couple of projects to facilitate learning. This class has been updated in order to step away from the video heavy Financial Foundations Ramsey curriculum to a more interactive learning environment. Homework: 2-4 hours per week.
