Today’s episode is about financial literacy. Katie and I first sat down with Kathleen Lawson, Executive Director at Economics Arkansas, and Marsha Masters, associate director at Economics Arkansas. We discussed the importance of economics in education along with some startling statistics. We then talked with Gayle Norman, a former educator who taught economics and financial literacy in her middle school classroom. I loved talking with Gayle because I think so many educators can relate to her reluctance to teach economics. I know I sure can! We then headed to a couple of people within our own district to tell us some ways they are incorporating financial literacy and economic skills into our classrooms. We sat down with Bethanie Hale, Principal at one of our elementary schools- she discussed how they use “Retta Bucks” to teach students about spending and saving, and we also talked with Kaci Travis who is a teacher at our Jr. High. she rocks the stock market game with her students. I’m so excited for you to hear from everyone!
