Teaching Kids Business - A Community

Educators sharing curricula to teach business concepts to kids...

Connect and collaborate with other teachers developing curricula around The Future Business Leaders' Series(tm)

Members

Welcome

Hi, Educators & Parents,

I'm Jennifer Bouani, author of the Future Business Leaders' Series, a series of adventure stories designed to teach kids about business and entrepreneurship.
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!
Jennifer

Business Ideas For Young Entrepreneurs: Thanks to Toilet EntrepreneurKeep Them Wearing A JerseyTeach Children Entrepreneurship: Last Fall, my 3-year-old son and I were going to a soccer clinic for the 1st time. My son pulled out a thick sweat shirt to wear. The temperature was 80 deg. F that day, so I said, “You’ll need some soccer clothes today; It’s warm.”“But this IS for soccer, Dad”.“No it’s not, son”.“Yes it is….it has a number on it!
