Workgroup Information Money Talks |
|
| $4,850 | |
| Summary | Money Talks offers teens the opportunity to learn money management techniques in three different formats: magazine-style teen guides, classroom curriculum, and interactive web site. All the materials are available in English and Spanish. Magazine-style Teen Guides - A series of ten teen guides have been developed with topics based on the responses from our needs assessment of teens in Southern California. The topics include: money personality, easy ways to save money, shopping skills, car costs, buying snacks, savings accounts, checking accounts, e-banking, obtaining credit, and credit cards. Classroom Curriculum - Leader's guides accompany each of the teen guides. Included in the leader's guides are learning objectives; background information; discussion questions; activities with handouts, visuals, and links to the web site; a glossary of important terms; and additional resources. Interactive Web Site - The Money Talks web site contains downloadable versions of all the teen guides, videos on simple ways to save and credit, interactive games and quizzes, links to other sites, and an Ask $am segment that allows teens to ask questions of our in-house expert. |
