We will begin teaching Financial Literacy and Economic principles to students in the 9th grade. These documentaries are great supplements to the program. They allow students to see the world and our society as a whole from different perspectives so they can begin to form their own opinions about how our economy does and should work. It also teaches them about why they should be involved in the political process, even if it is just as an informed voter. Students need to know that those they vote into office decide where the tax dollars they pay will go. I keep hearing that "it doesn't matter" so why should they vote. I want them to understand that it is what they do as a productive citizen and that it does matter. There are many resources and movie guides on Teachers pay Teachers that I can use with the DVDs. The DVDs are well made and introduce ideas and show the connections of the economy and economic and political decisions and how they directly effect the people in a society.
