Learning Economics in Style

Help me give my students a welcoming and comfortable classroom with the necessary resources to learn economics.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Aboud's classroom raised $2,842

This project is fully funded

My Project

Having the opportunity to fulfill my project for my economics classroom is a dream come true.

Learning is easier in an environment where students are relaxed, able to communicate with one another and their teacher, and have much needed resources and materials.

The gaming chairs will offer students the ability to sit comfortably while working in groups and completing economic simulations. The standing desk will allow me to be more visible to students when using my document camera and projector. Students will use the whiteboards and markers to solve economic problems and graph representations of their answers. Students also learn about investing and play in a stock market game, so the class set of investing books is a much needed text.
