Student Presentation Strategy

For this lesson, I will introduce and explore
different types of Financial Aid available for
college success by:

1. Identifying and discussing different types of aid
available for college success.

2. Allowing students to engage and ask questions
pertaining to each type with group discussion, an
online game and an exit ticket to write a short
statement if they are satisfied or will pursue
different types of aid.
