We will follow a young character idea of  "Tad" as he starts his own new job and takes over expenditure responsibilities. By design, over 100 mixed consumer math skills and definitions will be experienced throughout this course. For instance, Tad's new job will help him pay his bills such as cell phone and car insurance, and help him determine opportunity costs that he may not be able to afford. "Tad" will go out to eat and consider an appropriate tip percentages and tax, buy clothing and school supplies, write checks, choose a reliable car, and will train for his job. "Tad" will have to maintain his car with the unexpected repairs and oil changes. He will budget and choose different entertainment expenses. Over time, your learner will realize various real-life expenditures that a job will help to fund, and the difference between needs and wants that can be supported or not supported based on inflow and outflow. Your learner will learn how to manage daily expenses and what to consider in making a budget work.

The class is set up as straightforward word problem scenarios, and is a consumer math application class. We will be doing calculations throughout the class; there is no entertainment component except the idea of a real life application of a student learning to transition into personal responsibility. 

Calculators are encouraged in this class for your learner so the flow of the class is efficient. Your learner should be proficient in the operations and our focus concerns multiple calculations to learn processes.
