Description

We are proud to present a first-of-its-kind, virtual economic education conference just for teachers in grades kindergarten through fifth grade...the K-5 Economic Education Expo (K5E3)!

The purpose of this conference is to equip educators to teach Georgia’s economics and personal finance standards with reliable resources and engaging instructional strategies.

We have designed K5E3 with general sessions featuring authors using picture books to share how economic decision-making is a critical part of all our lives. The smaller-group sessions are tailored specifically for the grade bands, K-1st, 2nd-3rd, and 4th-5th. Participants may choose any grade band session regardless of the grade they are currently teaching . Our hope is this virtual conference will leave you refreshed and inspired to teach this vital subject with confidence and enthusiasm. A few of the sessions planned are

  •    -Starting Your Year Off Smart with the Economic Way of Thinking
  •    -Tech Tools to Help You Teach Economics and Budgeting
  •    -Lingo Bingo: Fun Ways to Teach Economic Vocabulary
  •    -Being Clever with Your Cash: Teaching Your Students to Spend and Save Money Intelligently
  •    -Getting More Bang for Your Book, ft. the 3 Js of the GaDOE
  •    -Be Flipgrid Fabulous Teaching the Economics and Personal Finance GSE

 

This event takes place via Zoom June 14-15, 2021 from 8:30am-3:00pm each day. Registration is free, and all resources (including picture books) will be provided to participants at no financial cost to them or their school systems. Loads of great door prizes will be given as well. This is one virtual conference you don’t want to miss!

If you register for this event before Memorial Day (May 31), and you attend both Expo days in June, you will be entered into a special drawing for one of two $150 gift cards.
