More Financial Literacy Resources

If you are a regular reader of this blog, you will know that I've posted Financial Literacy resources from time to time, as I hear or read about them.  Today's post may be old news to some, and new news to others, but I wanted to post the resources shared recently in Professionally Speaking magazine (September 2012).  As always, the Financial Literacy section of the EduGAINS website (a link is permanently on the right sidebar) would have the most recent, current, up to date materials on Financial Literacy.

Financial Literacy documents

Here are a couple of Financial Literacy documents that come from the Ministry of Education.  I am posting them here so you can find them again.  I will also add a link to the sidebar.  A reminder that Financial Literacy is a responsibility of all teachers of all subjects.  The scope and sequence document helps align some of the curriculum areas with Financial Literacy concepts for grades 4 to 12.

These documents are only available electronically on-line and can not be ordered in print form.
