Strive to Drive

Strive to Drive (S2D): Is a ninety-minute high school classroom activity that ties together personal finance concepts and knowledge, using a colorful gameboard poster and discussion cards that guide students through the process of purchasing their first car. Small groups of students work together as they find a job, research the vehicles of their choice, select insurance appropriate to their circumstnaces, and consider how to pay for and maintain their respective vehicles as responsible car owners. This activity may be broken into two class periods and is highly recommended for teachers working with students in the area of personal finance.
