Instructional Ideas
  • Host a seminar for high school seniors in need of job counseling, or for other high schoolers interested in career readiness
  • Use the lessons in your economics class, home economics class, or personal finance unit in a social studies class
Classroom Considerations

  • Some of the worksheets are in color, but printing in black and white shouldn't affect understanding
  • This resource is only available on an unencrypted HTTP website.It should be fine for general use, but don’t use it to share any personally identifiable information
Pros
