| Abstract | A project was conducted to teach family financial management to a class of adult basic education (ABE) students. Materials on budgeting were provided, and students had to prepare budgets based on various fictitious situations described. After 2 weeks, changes in their situations were introduced so that they had to alter their budgets accordingly. The project showed that ABE students, especially those from low-income families, had little knowledge of budgeting. The project concluded that budgeting is a necessary skill to teach but that future projects should focus more on teaching students to budget for their own situations rather than for fictitious ones. (This report includes a chapter that provides students information on why they need a budget, fixed and flexible expenses, and how to create a budget; handouts that provide fictitious life scenarios for creating and modifying budgets also are provided.)
