No matter what grade you teach, your students can benefit from learning how to become smart money managers. A fantastic new resource for teachers, students and parents, too, is the “Hands on Banking” tutorial from Wells Fargo. And the best part about it is that it’s free!

Designed especially for use by educators, the lessons in Hands on Banking meet national standards for math, literacy and economics. Companion Teacher Guides are also a part of the program. Absolutely no advertising or product promotions appear on the tutorial, so you are assured that it is intended for “pure learning.”

The tutorial addresses four audiences: children in grades 4-5, middle school students, teens in high school and young adults. Colorful, animated lessons are self-paced for individual learning, but can also be used for classrooms and community groups. Plus, the material is presented in both English and Spanish.

Help your students become more knowledgeable about budgeting, saving, maintaining good credit, buying a home, investing and many other important financial topics.
