This presentation discusses the importance of finance education and financial literacy and how both students and educators can become prepared to learn and discuss about finance through the use of everyday consumer products. This presentation will discuss how familiar brands and consumer products are practical tools for English speaking, reading, writing, and listening activities related to finance in classrooms.
