What Is Economics for Everybody Curriculum?
Twelve 23-Minute Messages. Over 4 Hours of Teaching.
Watch this short, introductory video from Compass Classroom…
“Economics: it’s everywhere, influencing everything — and so rarely understood.
Economics for Everybody seeks to remedy that through an insightful and entertaining exploration of the principles, practices, and consequences of economics. Thoroughly unconventional, this church, family, and homeschool economics curriculum links entrepreneurship with lemonade, cartoons with markets, and Charlie Chaplin with supply and demand.” ~ Compass Classroom
How Are We Using Economics for Everybody in Our Homeschool?
We are watching the Economics for Everybody video lessons and doing the follow up study guide for a 1/2 credit for my two high school students. Since we are in a routine of Visual Latin and WordUp! in the afternoons and/or evenings, this fits nicely into our weeks. Of course, us parents sure wish we learned economics this way!

Sounds awesome! We are going through Dave Ramsey’s personal finance course for high schoolers now, but a real economics course would be a great idea. Thanks for the review.
Oh I know that Dave Ramsey’s course is wonderful! And yes, this is a great economics course – love the Biblical view.
Hi

Hi Tricia, did each of your kids have their own printed copy of the companion Study Guide to fill out and compete? Thank you for this wonderful review!
Hi Jennifer – When we first started with Economics for Everybody, the printed copy was not yet available. We watched and discussed with dad. We will be going back through this curriculum next year!
