Basic Personal Finance

Here's a resource for very basic economic and personal finance - http://www.moneyinstructor.com/skills.asp
Included are things like an "Economic Bazaar" in the classroom; templates for things like blank cheques, etc.

Also, for a Canadian perspective, see "Your Money, Your Life, Your Way" through the Ministry of Citizenship, Culture & Rec.
http://www.citizenship.gov.on.ca/owd/english/resources/publications/yourmoney/
There are 2 parts: A student brochure with tacit information, and a teachers' guide with lesson ideas which are interactive. Be sure to find the teachers' guide online. This package includes things like basic budgeting, and many other activities.
