Preparing for NYS Portrait of a Graduate Financial Literacy Component: Wealth, Risk, and Investing VIRTUAL Workshop facilitated by Philip Dituri, Ph.D.-8:30-2:30pm
Get ready to meet New York State’s new Portrait of a Graduate expectations for Personal Finance Education. When taught well, personal finance is relevant to students’ lives and research shows that students find it interesting, recognize its importance, and are naturally motivated to engage with it. This workshop will help you harness that motivation while building your own confidence and capacity to teach these essential topics. Rather than skimming all five state-identified areas, we’ll take a deep dive into two of the most foundational components of the new standards: -Saving and Investing: Examining how setting money aside and understanding long-term planning support financial well-being. -Risk Management: Understanding that risk is a part of life and exploring strategies to manage it, including the role of insurance. Together, we’ll unpack the core concepts, essential understandings, and best instructional practices for each area. You’ll experience student-ready activities that illuminate the financial theory and mathematics underlying these ideas, and you’ll leave with materials and strategies you can implement immediately in your classroom or community setting. This workshop is designed for all educators-math teachers, non-math teachers, and anyone looking to strengthen financial literacy instruction. You’ll walk away with ready-to-use activities, a clear understanding of related standards, and the tools to empower your students in their academic, personal, and future financial lives. No prior financial background required-just curiosity, commitment, and a desire to help students thrive. Come join us and discover what meaningful, engaging financial education can look like in your school! Must have reliable and stable internet connection. Eligible for 6 hours CTLE credit. If district pays, district approval must be confirmed prior to start of session.
