TheSimpleDollar.com - Guide
to securing your child's credit future and Guide
to securing your college student's credit future. Arecent study found that
over half (study estimated 70%) of Americans are effectively financially illiterate.
Which probably isn’t surprising given the fact that many young people
are never taught basic financial concepts. For example, only about 20 states
require a personal finance class for high school students. So, in an effort
to be a part of the solution, they have created a series of guides designed
for students and parents that give practical advice on developing and building
upon healthy financial habits throughout one's life as well as a comprehensive
handbook on credit.

I've included a bunch of money lessons that teachers can use in their classroom
to help their students learn even more. The author, Chloe Rousseau, is an educational
outreach writer and financial consultant for a site that sells checks but also
features math lessons, specifically about money topics for students and teachers.
