Using Infographics to Teach Consumer Math in High School
Our homeschool students need practical life-skill information when it comes to consumer math and financial literacy.
I’ve been delighted to find lots of infographics available at no cost for use in learning about these subjects.
Infographics (in case you don’t know) are visual representations of information designed to be an overview or starting point in understanding. They are not complete, but they provide a GREAT way to get the ball rolling when studying things like finance.
Of course infographics only give a TASTE of the material your student needs to understand, but a taste can get them started!
Here are some infographics that I’ve found:
Leasing vs. Buying a Car
What to Buy When
Grocery Shopping Budget Tips
Planning for Retirement
Life Insurance
Living Paycheck to Paycheck
Student Debt
Wedding Expense
