A survey in 2022 funded by the Gates Foundation found that 61% of parents of students said math education should be “relevant to the real world” but that only 21% said it was.

Well, yeah... of course it should!!

Congratulations! This is such great news, and a testament that real world skills are more important than ever before!

My favorite way to teach money to kids… make it fun! Come meet the $uperSquad team!

Financial health is not just an adult topic. Getting children thinking about responsible borrowing and saving early yields a lifetime of great decision making!

Giving Tuesday is a great time to look around and see where you want to make a difference. FitMoney is 100% philanthropically funded so there is never a fee for students to learn and create healthy money habits starting early!

So many hours of free time ahead of us this holiday! Explore some of these options that kids actually like to do! This idea and now parent approved solution is huge!

I learned that instead of saying to your kids, “we can’t afford that,” thereby making money the enemy, how about “let’s create a goal to get that” or even “tell me more about that item”. Turn spending smartly into a healthy habit!

I learned so much during this conversation. Even secure websites aren’t always safe. A good tip to have your router block websites less than 2 weeks old! Protecting our assets and online identity is crucial to financial health.

Join the $uperSquad team as they plan for a Halloween party! Decision making can and should start young to build great habits!

This is a course I want to take…!!!

“Do topics like high interest rates translate to higher interest [in math] amount students? Yes!”

#FinancialLiteracy is about behavior choices… if it helps students realize the value that math applies to real life, then it’s a win-win for our future.

This is one of my favorite podcasts as we hear from 3 different perspectives on why #financialliteracy is integral to our education. This Fair allows teens to try out their 25-year old future career and see how far their salary will go!

We all hear that we should be in the market… even if it’s down, it will go up, they say. But how, and with what money? And can I buy just one share? All these questions answered here!! #Obi and #Jacob awesome conversation!

So important for kids to learn needs and wants, and how to prioritize when decisions between the two are hard. Thank you for a very well written and researched piece!

Thank you The Boston Globe and Mariya Manzhos 🇺🇦 for this important #education article. Let’s get this is ALL classrooms for the most equitable access to financial health!

“There really is a connection between financial wellbeing and social-emotional wellbeing.” Really enjoyed this conversation on empowering women to become resilient and overcome barriers.

Thank you Bobbi for a great conversation about how to talk about money with our kids, and especially what we value in our own families!

Such a fun conversation about kids and money, a million vs. a billion, and $10,000 cash game of monopoly!!

Love everything about this partnership with people who truly care about our kids’ futures! Thank you #UMass and #CentralMA families.
