Feedback from teachers who attended

★★★★★

What I appreciated most about this workshop was its practical, hands-on approach to teaching financial
literacy. The interactive activities, like categorizing budget items and creating anchor charts, offered concrete methods to bring these concepts to life in the classroom.

★★★★★

I enjoyed the collaborative environment created by the facilitators, which allowed for rich discussions and idea-sharing among educators. This approach not only helped us explore new strategies but also allowed us to gain insights into how others approach financial literacy in diverse classroom settings.

★★★★★

The variety of resources—each focusing on a unique financial theme—ensured that there were tools suited to different age groups and learning needs, making it easy to envision immediate applications in my own lessons.   

★★★★★

The workshop’s focus on relatable, real-life scenarios in the stories and discussions was refreshing. By grounding economic and financial concepts in everyday situations, it made these topics more accessible and meaningful, both for teachers and, ultimately, for students



★★★★★

The Q&A session with the lunch panel was particularly valuable, as it provided a space to delve into specific challenges and brainstorm solutions collectively.   

★★★★★

I liked the hands on
learning, the lesson plans already were prepared so we could talk about
material and subject matter more.     Feedback and dialogue from
other professionals.
