Raising our children into the top 1%!
The Miracle of Reading Newspapers: Developing Literacy, Thinking, and Metacognition

Recommended by economic education mentor Ok Hyo-jin, elementary education mentor Lee Seo-yoon, and children's literacy expert Ha Yu-jeong

《One Page a Day Elementary School Economics Newspaper 2》 has been published.
Building on the enthusiastic response to Volume 1, this book expands its perspective beyond the economics of everyday life to encompass the environment, culture, the future, and science.
Newspapers are the most effective tool for developing children's literacy and thinking skills.
However, it is still not easy for elementary school students to read and understand newspaper articles.
So once again, we've brought together two practicing teachers with over 20 years of experience and some of the country's leading economics education experts.

This book explains the economic issues that children need to know about now in seven areas: 'Me, Us, Country, International, Environment, Culture, Future and Science', at a level that children can understand.
Each article includes key questions, essential economic vocabulary, real-world data and graphs, and metacognitive activities to help you test your learning.
By reading a newspaper a day and solving problems, children will naturally come to understand the principles of money and markets, as well as the flow of society and the world.


"One Page a Day Elementary Economics Newspaper 2" will help children develop useful life knowledge and "economic literacy," a solid foundation for future competitiveness.

Into the book
One of the most popular careers for elementary school students these days is digital creator.
By uploading fun and unique videos on platforms like YouTube or TikTok, you can gain popularity and make money through advertising or sponsorships based on that popularity.
According to a survey by the Ministry of Science and ICT and the Korea Communications Commission, the average annual income of digital creators is approximately 13.46 million won, or approximately 1.12 million won per month.
These days, the minimum wage is around 10,000 won, so being a creator doesn't necessarily mean you'll make a lot of money.
However, according to the National Tax Service, the top 10% of creators earn an average of 538 million won per year, or about 45 million won per month, showing a very large income gap even among creators in the same profession.
---From "p.16 'What is the income of a YouTuber, the most preferred job among elementary school students?'"

These days, we often see weather and economic news on social media rather than on TV or in the newspaper.
However, there is a lot of fake news on social media that appears to be real, but in fact has unclear sources and no basis.
Fake news is false information presented as real news.
It doesn't just end with misinformation; sometimes it's with the malicious intent of misleading people's economic choices or destabilizing financial markets to make money.
These fake news stories are often created with the intention of exploiting information asymmetry (the lack of accurate information among all people) to stimulate anxiety and gain profit.
---From "p.32 'Fake news that appears real but may be false'"

Many children and adolescents seek growth hormone injections to grow taller.
However, this injection is a medicine that is used for treatment purposes only when a doctor diagnoses a special case where height growth is not good.
If you get it done carelessly, your hands, feet, or face may become enlarged, hormonal imbalances may occur, and there may be pain or bleeding at the injection site.
In severe cases, the growth plate may close, causing growth to stop or causing damage to the heart and organs.
These days, there are more and more cases of people getting vaccinated at the recommendation of friends or people around them without going to the hospital, but if you get vaccinated without a checkup, hidden illnesses can get worse.
So, you must get a diagnosis and examination from a doctor and only get it safely when necessary.
---From "p.40 'Growth hormone injections are dangerous if administered carelessly'"

These days, our society is facing a growing problem of low birth rates and aging population, with fewer babies crying and more elderly people.
To address this, the government solicited policy ideas from the public, and many people put their heads together to brainstorm solutions.
Among the ideas collected this way, we plan to award proposals that are helpful to society and use them as actual policies.
A total of 3,639 entries were received for this contest, with 1,663 entries from middle and high school students and 1,976 entries from college students and the general public.
On July 16th, the 'Low Birth Rate and Aging Society Policy Contest' awards ceremony was held at the Lotte Hotel in Sogong-dong, Seoul.
The target was Kim Yi-seul's 'Hyo Points'.
It was a proposal to collect points through activities such as reducing carbon emissions or walking, and use them to pay for health care services.
---From "p.64 'Let's solve the problem of low birth rate and aging population together!'"

Publisher's Review
One Page a Day: The Miracle of Developing Economic Literacy
Newspaper reading habits that foster smart economic awareness in elementary school students.
Verified economic content created by elementary school teachers with 20 years of experience and Maeil Business Newspaper.


The best-selling elementary economics textbook returns.

《One Page a Day Elementary Economics Newspaper》 became a bestseller immediately after its publication, receiving an explosive response in the field of elementary economics education.
Thanks to the novel structure that unfolds familiar stories from everyday life into economic articles, many children experienced the joy of 'reading economic newspapers' for the first time, and it also gained high trust from parents and teachers.
Thanks to such enthusiastic support, the publication of “One Page a Day Elementary School Economics Newspaper 2” has returned with an even more expanded format.
It covers a wide range of today's major issues, including economy, culture, environment, science, future, and technology.
From YouTuber income, teen stock investment, the reselling of popular game consoles, fake news, digital currency, climate change cards, the AI ​​talent war, and even Tesla's robotaxis, we offer a rich introduction to a wide range of topics, from everyday questions children have about the world to global economic trends.

Friendly and engaging economic articles tailored for elementary school students

Economics often feels like a difficult and boring topic to children, but it actually permeates our daily lives.
Comparing prices or deciding what to buy with your allowance are all economic activities.
《One Page a Day Elementary Economics Newspaper 2》 is designed to start with topics that interest children in everyday life and gradually broaden their perspective to society, the world, and the future.
Moreover, although it has a newspaper format, it is not stiff or difficult like a traditional newspaper.
The titles, sentences, and vocabulary are all tailored to elementary school students' level, allowing them to access economic articles without feeling burdened, as if reading an engaging storybook.
Thanks to this, even young readers can naturally accept economic concepts and terms they encounter for the first time.

Systematic structure that leads from reading to thinking and application

《One Page a Day Elementary Economics Newspaper 2》 is not a book you can simply read and finish.
It starts with one article, broadens your thinking, and then moves on to activities that apply what you've learned.
First, unfamiliar terms appearing in the article are explained in an easy-to-understand manner in the 'Vocabulary' corner.
Thanks to this, children can easily understand concepts they hear for the first time.
The following 'key questions' highlight the topic of the article and lead to a simple thinking exercise.
In 'Ssokssok In-Depth Economics Learning', we don't stop at simply understanding what you've learned; we move on to activities that apply it to real life.
The numbers, graphs, and statistics in the article are not just passing by.
We help you develop the power to analyze and interpret, not just read.
The final step is the ‘Metacognition Growing’ activity.
After reading the article, it's time to write a short essay or solve a simple problem while recalling what you've learned.
This allows me to organize my thoughts and check for myself whether I have understood correctly.
This trend naturally leads to improved Korean language skills.
Because the power to think, organize, and express is the foundation of all learning.
