Financial Literacy Learning Strategies in Elementary Schools

Abstract

The scope of social studies in elementary schools includes the study of social sciences and also the life of the community. Several previous studies revealed the low-financial literacy of elementary school students. The purpose of this paper is to identify financial literacy learning strategies implemented by elementary school teachers around the world. The research method used is a literature study. The characteristics of sources used in this study are national and international articles from the last 10 years with the keywords financial literacy, elementary school, and learning. The results showed that three strategies could be applied in financial literacy to elementary schools, namely the strategy of preparing relevant teaching materials, making financial literacy questions, and innovative learning media.
