How It Works

When you join our Teacher Test Drive, you will participate in a “class” in the role of a student. You will have:

  • Access to our Personal Budget Game where students learn how to use their checking, savings, and credit card accounts and try to stay on a monthly budget
  • Access to our Stock Market Game where students receive a virtual $100,000 in starting cash to build a portfolio of US stocks, ETFs, mutual funds, and bonds
  • Access to our entire curriculum library, with over 300 lessons!

If you want to see more info on what’s included, click here.

As you progress through the games, you will earn badges on your Achievements page – pick one to show off in the Class Rankings against other teachers who are participating too! Your badges “Level Up” as you improve mastery of a concept – see how much you can grow!

  • Plus over 50 other settings to completely customize your class!

And with our curriculum library, you can choose:

  • Which lessons your students need to complete, with each “Assignment” having its own “start date” and “due date”
  • Queue up assignments by setting “prerequisites” (where students need to complete one assignments before starting another, regardless of start dates)
  • Add “Rewards” for assignment completion, giving deposits to their stock portfolio or budget game checking account
  • If students can re-take the quizzes at the end of each lesson to earn a higher score, or if their first try gets saved to their “grade book”
