Money Matters and Mobiles

Use of mobile phones provides a real life context for helping children understand money matters and develop their financial skills for life. pfeg has worked with eight primary schools to develop new and innovative teaching practices that would help children aged 9-11 make a connection between using the phone and paying the bill. This resource pack records their experiences and offers schemes of work, lesson plans, PowerPoint guides to lessons, activities and examples of pupils' work to give you ideas to plan and teach personal finance around mobile phones.
