Free Market Rules Economic Curriculum (Units 21-30)
Questions in Book 3 include discussions about money and inflation, firms and monopolies, taxes, funding the government, world trade, investing, bureaucracy, socialism, entrepreneurship, and lots more! Book 3 of 3 includes 40 lessons. The 3 books do get more complicated as you learn more terms and concepts. It would make sense to do them in order. ~Sara
Our award-winning economic curriculum helps children of all ages learn about the free market. This purchase of Units 21-30 contains the final series of 10 units in the program, each of which has 4 lessons. So you’ll get the last series of 40 lessons, each of which contains:
- Quick introductory content for parents to get up to speed on that week’s concept
- Lesson or activity for young children
- Lesson or activity for older children
- Discussion prompts for the entire family
- “Go deeper” material for those who want to learn even more
Each 4-week unit centers around a specific question. Here are the topics for Units 21-30:
- What can central banks do to our money?

- How does a business work?
- What is a monopoly?

Fans of the Tuttle Twins will appreciate economic lessons designed to teach children of all ages about the free market. Each book has 10 units with 4 lessons each. Completing all 3 results in 120 lessons for the year, potentially being used as a high school elective credit. Lessons include an introduction to the concept for the parents, activities for younger and older children, family discussion prompts, and optional material to dig deeper into a topic. This is how you get the grade range from kinders to high school – family discussion. Young learners can understand simple questions while older students can dig deeper into the repercussions of every scenario. Each unit takes 4 weeks to complete. Units center around a thought-provoking question: Do you really need that? What makes something useful? Why can’t you always get what you want? These are just the first 3 units. Later units discuss trade, money, demand, products, banks, monopolies, taxes, Keynesianism, etc. Final units bring you around to asking: What’s the best economic system? or How can we use economics? Each unit has consumable student pages as well as a discussion guide for parents/teachers. You can try out one unit and see if they are a good fit for your family or order all 3 in a set! This is not the sort of course that needs an answer key. See the table of contents for each book to show specific discussion topics.
