Welcome to Money in Motion: What Teens Should Know About Managing Finances.

In 2003, teens spent a whopping $175 billion⁽¹⁾, yet less than 40 percent of high school students receive any formal financial education. The American Bankers Association Education Foundation, in collaboration with Scholastic Inc., has developed this comprehensive education package to help make a real difference in the lives of teens. This program includes lessons and reproducibles that meet the following standards:

		Print out each lesson and corresponding student reproducible. As you teach each lesson, distribute the accompanying student reproducible. • Introduction: The Quiz: Money in Motion (PDF) • Lesson 1: Depositing the Dough • Lesson 2: Credit—or? • Lesson 3: Check It Out • Lesson 4: Banking on the Future • Lesson 5: A Taxing Question

	Review and share these resources as desired. • Standards and Benchmarks (PDF) • Classroom Poster (PDF) • Quiz Answer Key (PDF) • Background & Definitions (PDF)

		Reproduce and distribute these student resources. • Student Finance Guide (PDF)
