Imagine learning about personal finance while playing the board game, The Game of Life. Each day, students will randomly “draw cards” to establish their life conditions that day (i.e. the salary they are earning, the number of children, etc.). They will embark on research, analysis and decision-making for assignments related to opening bank accounts, getting a cell phone plan, finding housing, buying insurance, buying a car, getting a loan and other life decisions. They will practice skills like budgeting, paying bills, balancing their checking account and addressing “surprises” that come along. This course covers important topics that will help make them “Money-Wise” in the future.
