Money, money, money: show me the money! We have been learning about money the last several weeks, and decided to create a "Marketplace" to test our money skills. Students created cards focused on one of the following three themes: 'Happy Birthday,' 'Happy Easter,' or 'Congratulations on Your First Communion.' Each student created two cards. One card was kept by the student, and the other card was sold in the "Marketplace."
Students learned how to price their cards. They discovered that if you spend more for a card than what you sold your card for, you lose money. They also learned that if you set the price of your card higher than the amount of money people have, that your card will not be purchased. Money is super fun!
These three pictures show students setting prices for their cards, priced cards, and shopping for cards. It was so exciting to see the students navigate the market and work together to buy and sell their card creations!
