Over the summer and fall of 2016, OFSHEEA undertook a large-scale writing project, funded by the Ministry of Education, to update Family Studies-focused financial literacy resources. These new resources align with the 2013 curriculum expectations revisions. These new resources embed a financial literacy focus into 7 select courses offered in the Family Studies discipline:
- HNL2O – Grade 10 Clothing
- HNC3C – Understanding Fashion
- HCF3M – Food and Culture
- HNB4M – The World of Fashion
- HFL4E – Food and Healthy Living
- HHS4C – Families in Canada (College)
- HIP4O – Personal Life Management
ALL OF THE ABOVE RESOURCES ARE AVAILABLE FOR FREE (no membership is required to access them). Resources in each course include an instructional organizer, lesson plans, student handouts, teacher answer keys, powerpoint presentations, and if applicable, assessment and evaluation tools. Lesson plans only are also available in French. Click on the links above to access the resources.
All financial literacy resources are available for download and printable via livebinders.com.
All questions may be forwarded to the Project Coordinators, Derek Wun and Roula Hawa, at ofsheea@ofsheea.ca
