My students are hard working students that believe in the American Dream. I want to give my students a taste of this dream, while teaching persuasive language, entrepreneurship, and financial literacy skills. It pays off intrinsically, as students track their growth in different subject areas and reflect on how their effort caused these gains. But it also pays off extrinsically, through our classroom economy. I have center our management around a classroom micro-society. Students have a weekly timecard to fill out, wherein they earn "money" and receive a paycheck based on their efforts and achievement for the week,. Class bankers deposit these paychecks in student bank accounts (established through a free online program), and students use their money to buy supplies and visit the prize box. The next big step is students taking ownership of creating and managing their own businesses.
