About

This quiz focuses on personal finance education, specifically covering fundamental budgeting principles and financial planning strategies. The content is appropriately designed for high school students, particularly grades 9-12, as it addresses real-world financial management skills that students need as they transition to independence. The questions assess students' understanding of core budgeting concepts including distinguishing between needs and wants, tracking expenses through various methods like spreadsheets and apps, planning for recurring expenses, and building emergency funds. Students must demonstrate critical thinking skills to evaluate different budgeting strategies, analyze spending priorities, and make informed decisions about financial planning. The quiz requires students to apply practical knowledge about expense tracking, understand the importance of financial goal-setting, and recognize appropriate versus inappropriate uses of emergency funds. Created by Stacey Kuhl, a Life Skills teacher in the US who teaches grade 10. This quiz serves as an excellent formative assessment tool for students working through financial literacy curricula, particularly the Everfi Module 3 program focused on budgeting fundamentals. Teachers can effectively use this assessment as a warm-up activity to gauge prior knowledge before beginning budget-creation exercises, as guided practice during instruction on expense tracking methods, or as homework to reinforce lessons on emergency fund planning. The quiz works exceptionally well for review sessions before summative assessments on personal finance topics and provides immediate feedback opportunities for students to self-assess their understanding of budgeting principles. This assessment aligns with standards such as CEE.PF.4 (using a budget to make spending decisions) and CEE.PF.5 (developing strategies to control spending and achieve financial goals), supporting comprehensive financial literacy education that prepares students for real-world money management challenges.
