Life Studies, Math, Decimals, Money, Finance, Home Economics, Business, Grade 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Activities
These high school financial literacy worksheets will show your students why compound interest is helpful for investors while also letting them practice math skills using percentages and a simple mathematic formula! How to Use: Print 4 pages for each student. Page 1 teaches students how to calculate compound interest step by step. Students need to have a basic understanding of writing percentages in decimal form and multiplying to find the percent of a number. Next, students will be given their initial investment amount & a yearly interest rate. Each student in your class can be given different values so they have to do their own unique calculations, and to allow comparisons to be made. This provides for easy differentiation as well- you can choose what percentage interest rate each student gets based on their ability. Students will calculate the amount of compound interest they earn over ten years. They can then check their calculations using the compound interest formula that is included. Next, they can use the formula to calculate compound interest over longer periods of time. Your class can compare their results- leading to an interesting class discussion (prompt questions are included). Make sure to point out how compound interest is helpful for investing and saving and detrimental for borrowing money. Finally, students reflect on their learning by writing a paragraph after the lesson. Hopefully they will leave class wanting to start a saving account! Grades to Use With: This compound interest lesson with worksheets is designed for high school students in grades 8 through 12. It could be used in math, applied math, financial literacy, or consumer math classes. What's Included: 6 pages in PDF format: Ready to Print and Use!

6th Grade Math: Statistics and Probability Bundle: 4 Activities
Math, Statistics, Graphing, Money, Common Core, Grade 5, 6, 7, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Activities
Do you need some new ideas for your 6th grade math unit to meet the Common Core State Standards for Statistics and Probability? Here is a ready-to-go bundle with four fun real-life activities to incorporate into your unit plan. 1) Statistical Questions: Students are taught what a statistical question is: a question that has numerical answers that vary.. 8 questions are included. Students need to identify if they are statistical questions or not. If they are, students think of how the data might be collected. If they are not, students explain what aspects of a statistical question are missing. Finally, students write 4 questions of their own (one should not be a statistical question) and they trade with a friend to see if they can identify the odd one out. 2) Dot Plots and Histograms: Students will collect numerical data through a survey and create their own dot plots and histograms to display their findings! This gives them a sense of ownership over their learning, and it is a great way to assess their skills! Discussion questions and self- assessment are included. 3) Math Stations: Statistics and Probability: Station 3 in particular has students create a dot plot and calculate the mean, median and mode of provided data. They can also do the probability stations if you want to address those skills. 4) Mean, Median and Interquartile Range of Hourly Wages: From a cashier to a taxi driver to an account to a CEO, students are given 10 realistic hourly wages. First, they create a histogram to display the data. Next, they write the wages in order from smallest to largest. They use this information to calculate the mean, the median, and the interquartile range. After that, they eliminate the outlier (the CEO wage) and recalculate the same statistics. Discussion questions are included. Grades to Use With: This bundle is designed for students in Grade 6, but can be used for Grade 5 enrichment, Grade 7 or 8 review, or high school special education classes. What's Included: 20 Page PDF with 4 Activities

Finance, Life Studies, Home Economics, Percentages, Math, Fractions, Money, Grade 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Worksheets & Printables, Worksheets, Word Problems
Here’s a middle or high school applied math or consumer math activity to help your students practice the ratio math skills they have learned in a real-world situation: the rising cost of living . The three-page worksheet includes real statistics (from the United States) with accurate median family income, median house price, and average private college costs from 1965, 1995, and 2025. Students can use simple ratios to compare this data and see if housing and university really are more expensive compared to wages than they used to be. Although this lesson uses US data, it demonstrates trends that are occurring in other countries (like Canada) too! How to Use: Print 3 pages of worksheets for each student. Go over the table on page one together. It shows the median family income, median house price, and average cost of one year of college in 1965, 1995, and 2025 (in dollars for each of those years). Ask students what they notice. Model how to use the chart to write a ratio and simplify it by rounding. Use the included example of 1965 income to 1965 house price, which simplifies to 1:3 Let students work in pairs or small groups on the rest of the ratio questions. They will complete research for question 8: to find the average prices of a different category (medical insurance, food, cars, etc.) for 1965, 1995, and 2025. These can be shared later in a class discussion. Students can also share their ideas from question 9 in the discussion: how can people get ahead when housing and college cost so much more compared to wages than they used to? Finally, students can create their own meme to share a real-world proportional relationship about the rising cost of living with others. A sample is included in the answer key. A complete answer key is included so there is no guess-work with this lesson! Grades to Use With: This lesson is designed for middle school students in 6th, 7th or 8th grade to apply and practice ratio, rate, and proportional relationship skills.

What do the taxes you pay do? This high school personal financial literacy, life skills, and applied math project is designed for your students in 9th, 10th, 11th, or 12th grade when they are learning about all kinds of taxes and how the money collected by the government from income tax, property tax & sales tax is used in our society. How to Use: Print five pages of worksheets per student. Read through page one together and discuss the kinds of taxes that the government collects. Next, students investigate the local services their government funds with tax money. For some of these government services, it may be quite easy for your students to research a private alternative cost (for example, they find the tuition cost for a private school in their city). For other services, it will be definitely be harder to find a private alternative cost. Encourage your students to make reasonable estimates. Being exact is not crucial; the goal is for students to think about how much money it would cost to replace all the public services with private options. On the third and fourth pages, students will read about a fictional family: the Browns. They will use information and amounts provided in the simulation to total all of the expenses the Browns would have to pay out of pocket in a community that has no taxes. Would it really be better that way? Finally, on the fifth page, students will write a reflection about what they have learned about taxes from this project. Lead a class discussion to allow students to share their ideas and opinions. A complete answer key is provided for easy marking. What's Included: 7-Page PDF: Ready to Print and Use! Teacher Instructions 2 Pages: Research Local Programs Funded by Taxes and Private Alternatives 2-Page Realistic Simulation (with Spreadsheet) Reflection Answer Key Grades to Use With: This financial literacy, applied math, and life skills project is designed for your high school students in a variety of classes: consumer math, personal financial literacy, career & personal planning, applied math, or life skills.

High School Financial Literacy: Net Worth = Assets - Liabilities
Special Resources, Life Studies, Life Skills, Math, Addition and Subtraction, Addition, Subtraction, Money, Finance, Home Economics, Grade 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Worksheets
This 6 Page Financial Literacy PDF teaches your students about assets, liabilities, and net worth (equity). It is an easy way to get your high school students interested in personal financial literacy and building their wealth. 3 case studies are included with calculations to complete and questions to respond to. Each person has some assets and some liabilities. Students must add each of these categories up and find the difference to see how much net worth each person has. Then they need to think about what changes each person could make to their financial habits. Perhaps one person has too much debt or someone else isn't investing much even with a high income. Students can start to see how high income does not always lead to high net worth if the person spends more than they make and has debt. On the other hand, someone with a lower income can have a high net worth if they live a frugal lifestyle and save money in investments or property equity. Just because someone "looks" rich, doesn't mean that they are! Grades to Use WIth: The actual math in this assignment is quite simple: adding and subtracting numbers to the hundred thousands. Students could do the work by hand or with a calculator. Because of this, this assignment is accessible to students in grades 7-12 in regular math classes, adult education students, and high school special education students. How to Use: Introduce the vocabulary: Assets, Liabilities, and Equity on the first page and fill in the blanks together. You could do one of the case studies together as a class and assign the other two for students to complete on their own.

Flexible for Any Learning Style: Can be used for individual study, teaching groups, or supplementing a curriculum, with examples that show statistical principles in sports, games, and real life. Target Grades : Based on the complete analysis of the content, structure, and progression of the book-from very foundational concepts such as "What is Data?" and some simple tally marks in early chapters to more advanced ones like interquartile range, probability laws, sampling bias, correlation scatter plots, and ethical AI implications in later chapters-I believe the book addresses students from grades 5 through 12 most appropriately. The material progresses from simple, kid-friendly explanations using real-life analogies-such as recipes for data organization-to more sophisticated ideas, such as data skewness and mini data projects. As such, it is well-suited for middle schoolers, grades 5-8, who need to study visualization and averages, while high schoolers, grades 9-12, will appreciate the subjects of inference, causation, and what the future of technology holds based on these subjects. It is neither too simplistic for older children nor too advanced for younger ones, and the logic of progression allows for progressive learning.

This math project allows students in 5th, 6th, 7th, or 8th grade to apply their knowledge of perimeter, area, volume, financial literacy, and decimal calculations to a realistic & creative situation: planning a fun new park! They will design a new park that includes different areas for swimming, playing, eating, resting, walking, and even skating! Students will use their knowledge of perimeter of right-angled shapes when planning the size and shape of the park & the amount of fencing required use their knowledge of area when splitting the park up into different sections for activities use their knowledge of volume when considering filling the pool in their park use their knowledge of money math/decimal calculations when determining the grand total price of the entire park project. Each section has a different cost- a great introduction to unit rate. For example, paths are much less expensive than a playground, while grassy areas cost less than the swimming pool does. I ask my students to calculate by hand, but you can allow yours to use a calculator as well. This project gets students using their creative and logical problem solving skills, organizational skills, careful calculating methods, and neat drawing and colouring. It is a great project to use for a summative assessment at the end of a unit or to show parents at parent-teacher conferences.

Single vs Dual Income Budget: High School Financial Literacy Budgeting
Life Studies, Finance, Home Economics, Math, Addition and Subtraction, Money, Special Resources, Life Skills, Grade 9, 10, 11, 12, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Worksheets, Projects, Activities
This high school financial literacy project lets your students tackle a real-world budgeting decision families make: should both parents work, or should one stay home to do childcare? Students will use critical-thinking and problem-solving skills as they work with these realistic budgets (single income budget vs dual income budget). This task can show your students in 9th, 10th, 11th, or 12th grade how financial literacy and math skills can be incredibly useful in everyday life! How to Use: Print five pages for each student. Go through the first page together and introduce the family in the simulation. Students use the income and income tax information to calculate the net income. Give students time to add up the monthly expenses in each budget (single-income vs dual-income). Discuss what expenses change when both parents work and if those seem reasonable or not. Have students complete the calculations to compare the two budgets on the fourth page. NOTE: In this simulation, there is almost no difference in money left over if both parents work since the extra income is used to pay for childcare, a second car, a cleaner, etc. That does not mean this is always the case! Use the prompts on the fifth page to have a class discussion about this topic. Then, students write their final opinion in a paragraph to sum up their learning. They may have ideas for how to change this budget or scenario to make having both parents work be more financially beneficial. I have included blank spreadsheets as well if you want your students to create their own budgets using salaries and expenses from your geographical area. What’s Included: 9-Page PDF: Ready to Print and Use! Teacher Instructions Introduction to Kat and Alex and their family Single-Income Budget Spreadsheet (with expenses included) Dual-Income Budget Spreadsheet (with expenses included) Comparison of the Budgets Worksheet Reflection (with discussion prompts) Two Blank Budget Spreadsheets (single and dual income) Complete Answer Key Grades to Use With: Grades 9-12 General Studies or Grades 11-12 Special Ed Family and Consumer Sciences/Family Studies Life Skills Applied Math or Consumer Math Career and Personal Planning Financial Literacy Math Skills Required: Only intermediate math skills are required to complete this project: Adding & subtracting money amounts to the hundred thousands (salaries) Dividing by 12 to find monthly amounts (with decimals) An understanding of integers
