All-Inclusive And Easy To Use; The curriculum includes: lesson plans, worksheets, visual aids, answer keys, pacing guides and rubrics.

All Learning Styles Are Accommodated; All students have a chance to get engaged in learning activities using differentiated strategies that provide support for all learners (struggling and advanced) to be engaged in meaningful learning and challenged at their appropriate level. The target audience for the Student Classes is Urban youth (ages 11-21) who are predominantly from lower-income households, and may possess limited life experience with regards to words. These individuals also have a higher likelihood of becoming entrepreneurs as a result of participating in activities that support entrepreneurship, such as an Entrepreneurship Program, or other business education opportunities. This presents a great opportunity for students enrolled in high school and post-secondary to gain knowledge about entrepreneurship as well as develop the skills necessary to become successful entrepreneurs through exposure, exposure to real-world applications and experiences, and actively participating in entrepreneurial-related programs. Our ultimate goal is to create a pathway for students to learn and implement their own ideas in order to become successful entrepreneurs; therefore, we believe there is a need for these target audiences. Creating and expanding these audiences will provide access to unique learning experiences, real-life situations and provide valuable business and entrepreneurship information to them (which can positively impact the economic condition of the community).

Furthermore, this activity encourages critical thinking and problem-solving skills. As students progress through the calculations, they must analyze the expressions and strategically select the appropriate operations to perform. They need to consider the signs, exponents, and variable terms to ensure accurate computation. This process fosters logical reasoning and promotes a deeper understanding of polynomial concepts. The inclusion of both digital and printable formats accommodates different learning preferences and instructional settings. Teachers can choose to distribute printed worksheets to students in the classroom or share digital versions via online platforms. The digital format offers interactive features, such as fillable forms or drag-and-drop options, which enhance student engagement and provide immediate feedback.

This guided lesson includes: - Information about registered retirement accounts (RRSPs) in Canada and 401ks and IRAs in the USA in simple, easy-to-understand language - An example of how to calculate tax savings when investing in registered accounts in countries that use progressive tax rates - Four scenarios of increasing difficulty for students to work on independently or in pairs (answer key included) - Follow-up written questions to help students think more deeply about the pros and cons of registered savings accounts Grades: This lesson is appropriate for high school classes, life skills classes, and adult education. It requires students to have an understanding of percent written in decimal form. For example, finding 26% of $12,000 by multiplying 12,000 by 0.26 How to Use: Use the first page as a lesson for your students. Teach them about registered accounts in Canada and the US, why the government encourages them, and what benefits they have. This is where you can introduce the idea of tax refunds. People pay income taxes all year based on their earnings, but if they can reduce their income through deductions (for example by investing in a registered account) they will get some of that tax money they already paid back. Also introduce the idea of progressive taxes and how you pay more tax on the top end of your income. Go through the sample problem step-by-step on your whiteboard to ensure students understand all the calculations required to determine how much gross tax and net tax a person pays. Once students feel comfortable, let them work on the sample problems independently or in small groups.
