The Maine Department of Education, in partnership with the Maine Jump$tart Coalition, has created a financial education resource, titled the Maine Financial Education Framework and Resource Guide. This guide was created to assist Maine educators with understanding and implementing the personal finance and economics standards that are included in the Maine Learning Results (MLRs). The goal of this tool is to help educators make connections to the MLRs, Jump$tart National Standards, and their own classroom curriculum.
In addition to identifying the MLRs and performance indicators that have connections to personal finance and economics at all grade bands, this comprehensive guide offers links to lesson plans, games, activities, and local Maine resources that educators can use to help their students achieve the MLRs related to personal finance.
