Since I "make" all my students learn how to budget in a variety of contexts, and was thinking about "making" all my seniors fill out a tax return this year, Preet's stuff (and of course yours) will be the perfect on-line resource!<br /><br />It always helps to have the published experts validate my learning activities!<br /><br />Karen Gadowsky<br />_____________________________<br />Program Creator and Teacher<br />Delta Work Options<br />and<br />President and Speaker Coordinator<br />BC Alternate Education AssociationKaren Gadowskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06154899088252346739noreply@blogger.com
