Using Picture Books to Celebrate April's Financial Literacy Month

This session focuses on new picture books that help students learn about money, saving, financial planning, budgeting, and the value of investing in human capital. Featured titles include “Sloth & Squirrel in a Pickle”, “Dirt Cheap” and “A Gift from Abuela.”

Teachers will be able to:

• Learn how to introduce the students to the concepts of money, saving, spending, earning, and investing.
• Gain knowledge of new picture books for elementary students that feature personal finance concepts.
• Use the presented lessons and activities in their classroom instruction, after-school programs, or summer enrichment programs.
