Kindergarten — first ideas about wanting and having
For our youngest learners: simple words, real objects, and hands-on play with the very first ideas in economics.
In a nutshell
You can't have every toy you want, so you and your family choose what matters most first.
Primary — money, jobs and trading in everyday life
Building on the basics with saving, earning and swapping — the everyday economics of a curious 7-to-10-year-old.
In a nutshell
Money keeps moving in a loop: people work to earn it, then spend it, which pays someone else to work.
Middle School — the first real models
Scarcity, supply and demand, elasticity and markets: the core toolkit of economic reasoning, built from first principles.
In a nutshell
Prices are the tug-of-war between buyers and sellers, and wherever supply and demand cross sets the price everyone pays.
High School — firms, workers and the whole economy
Market structures, labour, and the macro dashboard — deeper models with real algebra and real-world stakes.
In a nutshell
Households and firms trade goods and labour for money in a constant loop, and that loop is what GDP measures.
College — rigorous theory for the whole economy and beyond
Formal optimization, strategic behaviour, macro models and the statistical tools economists use to test them all.
In a nutshell
Formal models and statistics let economists turn a hunch like "prices keep rising" into a testable, precise theory.
