My Project

Our math classroom runs using a classroom economy system. Students earn "money" for attendance, grades, growth, classroom jobs and other various tasks. Students pay rent, utilities and phone bills at the beginning of each month. They are given classroom supplies at the beginning of the year and must "purchase" items if original supplies are lost or damaged.

At the end of the quarter and on special holidays, students may use discretionary funds to purchase certain items outright or bid on auction items at our quarterly classroom auction.

The smaller items such as dry-erase markers, stickers and candy will be available for purchase with students discretionary "math" money. The larger items will be available for students to bid on in our quarterly auction.
