The new Third Edition of Financial Fitness for Life (FFFL) 9-12 Teacher’s Edition provides:

  • Completely up-to-date content that includes real-world situations
  • All content is aligned to national economics and personal finance standards

  • Coming soon: Lesson plan activities delivered through educational technology tools, including Kahoot! and Quizlet, ready for you to use for free in EconEdLink’s FFFL 9-12 collection

This session will help you teach personal finance online or in the classroom. FFFL allows you to measure your students’ progress across four areas of personal finance: earning an income, saving, spending and credit, and money management. Between these four themes there are 22 lessons, each focusing on a different topic and ranging in length from one 45-minute period to a week’s worth of classroom experience.

All attendees of this 3-hour evening session will receive a free FFFL lesson plan book (retail price is $40). Participants will take part in active lesson demonstrations while they network and build relationships with other teachers of personal finance and economics.


Fee: NO CHARGE


Additional Information:

The session will be designed for teachers of Economics and Personal Finance (EPF), but others are welcome to attend. Space is limited.
