This unit is written perfectly for my secondary self-contained functional special education class. Graphics were cute, and the worksheets and activities were written so my students could grasp the basics of economics. Nicely done!

First of all, thanks for the great economics unit! I've enjoyed using it as a supplement to my existing economics lessons.
A quick question: tomorrow I am using the "Why Save?" worksheet and I'm curious about which reasons your students listed for the three reasons to save money (if you wouldn't mind sharing them). I teach ESOL, so I was hoping to give them the reasons to copy down.
Thanks so much for your help!

Several students said to save for a car. We talked about saving money for college and also to buy a house. Some kids just wrote down they wanted to save for a particular toy or gadget they wanted to buy. I also mentioned saving money in case you have an emergency and need extra money.
Glad you are enjoying it!
