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

Fraction Word Problems Digital Escape Room
Math, Fractions, Winter, Seasons, Holiday & Seasonal, Grade 5, 6, 7, Escape Room, Activities, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Worksheets
Fraction problems on paper usually go over like a, well, snowball with your students; but this Winter Digital Escape Room changes that right away! Instead of plowing through problems on a page, students find themselves right in the middle of a wintery story in which their math smarts make all the difference. Their task? Unfreeze the Frostbite Festival with fraction problems embedded in four story scenarios. Students solve twenty fraction problems involving adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing fractions. With each correct solution giving the student a further piece of the puzzle and therefore the incentive to take their time and think before responding, this activity strongly encourages the student to take their time and think before responding. This activity also helps the student work independently without the need for constant checks by the teacher since the activity is entirely self-checking. The advantage: flexibility to perform calculations as improper fractions or as mixed numbers. This eliminates unnecessary frustration and “but my answer is right too” arguments among students. Then there is the autosave feature that allows students to save their work midway through the lesson, as long as they are on the same computer or accessing the page on the same web browser. There are also four winter-themed scenarios to keep things new and interesting throughout. Students will move around different activity cards of Snack Shack, Skating Trail, Yeti Workshop, and Penguin Performance. It is completely engaging and provides meaning without being distracting, which is exactly what you need when you are in the review session. This resource is the real deal in the realm of ‘no prep’ products. There is no account that needs to be set up, no passwords, and no complex installation. You simply share the link from Google Classroom, Canvas, Schoology, or whatever platform you use, and the kids can start working. It is completely seamless from the perspective of the users, including chromebooks, laptops, desktops, and tablets. In instances when you would prefer paper options or if you desire to reuse the problems in another manner, a complete printable version is also included. You'll get a worksheet with all the problems, a set of task cards to match the problems, and an answer key. Clear directions for both teachers and students are provided, and all can see exactly what the activity entails. Topics covered for both math and reading consist of all four fraction operations with unlike denominators and real-world fraction word problems. If you are searching for a winter fractions review that is engaging, organized, and easy to facilitate, this digital escape room meets every requirement and your students will want to solve it.

The escape room is a completely self-contained activity, which means students will not be able to progress with an incorrect answer, making this activity perfect for independent practice. One of the most beneficial aspects of this resource is the low level of work that it generates. There is no prep work that is necessary. You don’t have to set up anything, including logins and passwords and lock screens. You can just send out the link via Google Classroom, Canvas, Schoology, Microsoft Teams, or whatever tool that you are using. They just click and start. This autosave functionality comes in very handy during longer class times or interruptions. So long as students have had the chance to log back into the same computer and browser, they will pick up exactly where they left off. To make it more flexible, a printable version is also included. You will get a worksheet featuring all twenty unit rate problems, a matching version task card set, and finally, a full answer key. This is perfect for math center activities, small-scale intervention groups, or homework. Both the student and teacher instructions are provided and WrittenClearly, so there’s no misunderstanding or guestimation of how to do things. Students know just how to input their answers, and teachers know how to assign and use the autosave function. The skills which will be developed here include the understanding of the interpretation of unit rates, calculating a unit rate from a ratio, and using the rate in practical applications of money, time, distance, and measure problems. A winter unit rate resource that is engaging, organized, and actually easy to implement is not easy to find, but this escape room resource certainly delivers all of these things. Such a resource keeps students on task and provides a reliable no-prep resource for you to implement repeatedly.

Taxes: What Do Taxes Pay For: Income Tax, Financial Literacy, HS Math
Life Studies, Finance, Home Economics, Math, Addition and Subtraction, Money, Special Resources, Life Skills, Grade 9, 10, 11, 12, Activities, Projects, Worksheets & Printables, Word Problems, Worksheets
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.
