One of the third grade social studies standards is learning about a simple economy system, supply and demand, and resources. One way I promote hands-on learning for this is create an economy system within our classroom. Students can earn money by doing their work, completing their classroom jobs, being kind, doing homework, having a clean and organized workspace. Students also have to think about how best to spend their money, or save their money. They are responsible for paying a portion of their earnings each week for desk rental. At the end of the week students can choose to spend their money in our classroom store. This is only fun when it is fully stocked with high preference materials. In order for students to strive for awesome work and behavior, I need to provide them with something they really want.
