Real-life money lessons any teacher can teach tomorrow.
A comprehensive financial literacy course for middle and high school, created by a 7th grade math teacher of 20 years.
Every lesson answers the question kids always ask: “Where will I use this in real life?”
Why schools choose Life Lessons Math
Created by a human, tested on real kids. Every lesson was written by a real teacher and used in his own classroom for twelve years.
Any teacher can teach it. Step-by-step teaching scripts say what to ask, and how students usually answer. No math background needed.
Kids actually want to do it. Shark Tank deals, the Paper Clip trading project, carnival scams exposed, and a class Budgeting Game.
Real life, real numbers. Real prices, tax brackets, paychecks, and bills, updated every July before the school year starts.
Built for your state. Your version uses your state's sales tax, minimum wage, and local facts.
Everything is included. Notes, homework, answer keys, a quiz and a Final Test, in Print and Digital versions.
Made by a teacher, for teachers
Vincent Marino has taught 7th grade math for 20 years and has taught these life lessons to his own students for the past twelve. Every page, story, and teaching script comes straight from his classroom.
