Financial Fables for the Elementary Classroom

Posted by Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia on March 20, 2017

This one-evening professional development program introduces elementary school teachers to a series of online stories that combine reading, economics, and personal finance into life lessons that feature money. Related lesson plans will be demonstrated. Taught by Federal Reserve economic education specialists, this program emphasizes active- and collaborative-learning teaching methods. The content covered in this program can be used to meet state and national standards in personal finance, economics, social studies, and family and consumer sciences, as well as the Common Core State Standards. Participants will receive 2.5 hours of professional development credit (Act 48 in Pennsylvania), dinner, and all curriculum resources.
