MIDDLE SCHOOL CURRICULUM
CASE STUDIES (GRADES 6-9)
At the middle school level, FitMoney offers 19 real-world case studies that can be used in a variety of formats and classroom settings. Our goal is that much of the learning be generated from classroom discussion and for the cases to relate to life experiences faced by teens and young adults.​

STEM CURRICULUM
The FitMoney team has created a design challenge that gives tomorrow’s STEM Middle School (6-8) leaders the opportunity to critically think about and create solutions to address the current issues students and the world face today.
​
Students envision a problem-solving product, build a business plan document and make the important calculations in a budget spreadsheet, which culminates in a Business Plan "competition" presentation. Through a socially conscious lens, students will draft a product design, and learn the critical elements to starting a successful business venture to produce, market, and sell the product.
Financially Fit CERTIFICATE
The Financially Fit Certificate course includes 12 videos and 3 bonus videos on Taxes and is accessible on our platform in both English and Spanish.
If you'd like to guide your students through the course, you can use this slide deck and sample note taking tool.
For your students to continue the conversation at home, download the Family Conversation Guides that align to each video.
​
The Financially Fit Certificate Platform will:
-
Save students' place in the course so they can pick up where they left off
-
Unlock the assessment once all the videos are watched,
-
Allow your students to automatically download their certificate once they pass the assessment
