Curriculum
Why Use our Curriculum?
We believe that Financial Literacy for Youth is a good choice for teachers in Metro Vancouver. Here are our reasons:
- FLY curriculum materials stress practicality and relevance. We aim to teach concepts that high school students can relate to and use immediately.
- We are locally developed. The benefits to this are that our materials are designed based on the learning outcomes stated in Planning 10 by the BC Ministry of Education.
- Our materials are created for students by students. We are grass-root based; we aim to teach what students want to learn.
- Our teaching materials are simple, clear, and focused on the key concepts of financial literacy. This makes our teaching materials teacher friendly, easy to use and user friendly.

Our Approach
We are confident in our curriculum because of our approach. Our method of curriculum development begins at the grass-root level. We believe in starting with students, working with them to develop teaching materials that are engaging and understandable. We then turn to our teachers for feedback and revision. To us, teachers have the greatest understanding of the needs and interests of students in their classrooms. Their input allows us to develop a curriculum which suits teachers’ needs. Along the way, we consult our mentors in the university and the business community to ensure our materials are accurate and relevant.
