Money Management Workshop - Session I

For the first session we went of the basics of checking and savings accounts. It is always nice if you can have professional come in and speak but if your library/program is anything like mine, you may not have the funds to pay someone (although there are some banks/financial institustions that provide this for free). Attached you will find 2 great resources I found online. I especially like the check writing, and record keeping practice sheets. Also at the end of this session - I passed out the Spending Record sheets because they are needed for the next session.

Money Management Workshop Introduction

So - this summer I attempted a Money Management workshop for teens. It was fairly successful and well recieved but I'm in an urban area and our teens have to work. I know, all the more reason for them to learn how to manage their money. I am going to attempt this program again during the school year or maybe over spring break. I will start uploading my resources for each session.
