Learning and understanding the vocabulary of personal finance is a crucial step in becoming financially capable. That's why NGPF is thrilled to announce the release of NEW Interactive Vocabulary Flashcards, a free online study tool with flashcards for all 11 units and all mini-units in both English and Spanish.

Students can study right in their browser. You can access them at the top of each unit plan.

Here's everything you need to know:

Mix and match units

Select as many units as you want and the tool will shuffle all the terms together into one big deck. Reviewing for a Unit Test? Pick one unit. Prepping for a Final Exam? Combine them all.

Study your way

Start with the term and check the definition, start with the definition and recall the term, or mix both formats within the same deck.

Track what you missed

Students can mark any word they got wrong. At the end of the deck, they can go back and recheck only the terms they marked.

Available in English and Spanish

All terms and definitions come straight from the Personal Finance Dictionary and are available in both languages to support English Language Learners.

How do the flashcards fit with other NGPF vocabulary resources?

The Interactive Vocabulary Flashcards are the newest addition to NGPF's vocabulary toolkit.

Here's how they all work together:

Personal Finance Dictionary

The comprehensive reference document with all terms and definitions in English and Spanish. The flashcards pull directly from this source.

Unit Reviews 

Each Unit Review includes a vocabulary review section alongside core concept questions and a Kahoot!/Wayground quiz. Great for structured test prep.

We hope this new tool helps your students build confidence with personal finance vocabulary. Happy studying!
