Dear Educators,

On Monday, September 28th, the Dow Jones industrial average fell 778 points, an unprecedented drop for a single day in the Stock Market. In the wake of this disturbing, still unfolding national crisis, an argument could be made that financial literacy --- in all its practical aspects --- is as crucial to the lives of our students as the core curriculum subjects traditionally taught.

With support from sponsors Horace Mann, DoSomething.org and VISA, HotChalk has crafted a unit of free lesson plans, tips and other resources for elementary, middle and high school students. We invite you to take advantage of these materials and also to share any of your own best practices or lessons.

If you are currently taking advantage of HotChalk’s Financial Literacy resources, and would be willing to have a conversation with one of our editors about how you’re using them, please email Barbara.Atkinson@hotchalk.com.

Best,

Susan McLester
Editor in Chief, HotChallk
