KidsEcon Posters
The Indiana Council for Economic Education has developed a creative set of economic education materials for K-12 students. KidsEcon Posters© (KEP) is a curriculum project dedicated to giving teachers the tools they need to help their students understand the exciting economic world around them.
The Illinois Council highly recommends these materials. Illinois teachers of grades 1-8 will find these materials helpful in their implementation of the Economics Concepts Poster Contest!
The KEP materials will help your students master the economic content they need to know to meet state standards, and they are a great way to integrate disciplines.
The latest for K-5 students is a DVD of a dog puppet, Herschel, who thinks he knows a lot about economics but has a lot to learn!
