Recommendation:

While teaching a unit on economics, it might be nice to integrate some fun activities, like the ones presented on this site. Fedville is an interactive activity that incorporates several aspects of banking, saving and earning. It will take some time for students to complete it, but it will have some meaning to them.

Description:

This is the educational resource page of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. There is a list of online student activities, several relevant articles and publications and resources for teachers. Connect to the home page of the bank and find additional information.

Possible uses:

Teachers can find useful resources and information on this site to integrate into curriculum or use for their own knowledge base. Use the student activities and Currency Exhibit with students during a unit to enhance their learning. Use the `Ask Dr. Econ´ feature to submit questions students are curious about. There is a free curriculum, "Open and Operating," available to any teacher.
