Educators sharing curricula to teach business concepts to kids...
Connect and collaborate with other teachers developing curricula around The Future Business Leaders' Series(tm)
Welcome
Recently, some teachers have presented to Bouje (the publisher) various curricula they have developed around the series, while others are searching for curriculum ideas. I'm thrilled teachers are so engaged with teaching kids the basics of business!
I've always felt that the books could make a good teaching tool. Creative teachers are making that happen. So, I thought we could start an online community for teachers to connect and:
* share curriculum ideas
* find new curriculum ideas
* ask an expert educator
Welcome! Please join us in the conversation!

The Introduction for Tyler Passes the Golden Key
