Welcome to the
Literature Connection page of KidsEcon Posters©. From
this page you can access specific lessons based on popular children's
books that will help you teach the poster concepts to your students.
The heart of each lesson is a set of guided questions about economic
concepts found in the book. As you will notice, some books can be
used to teach several different concepts.
We firmly
believe that using children's literature to help you teach economics
not only is good pedagogy, but also enables you to be efficient
in using your scarce instructional time.
The majority
of lessons in this part of the KidsEcon Posters© web
site were created by teachers Betty Sue Johnson and Elizabeth Hinkebein.
Teachers Kathy Heyse and Lee Choo Lim were also significant contributors.

you can use with your class. Enjoy!
