The day that we've all been waiting for has finally arrived! It's STORE DAY!!!!!!💰💸💰💸
The students came very well-prepared. Look at their creative signs and decorations!
After the set-up was complete, they each received their wallet with $25 of spending money.
Next, the students lined up to visit the Bank of Johnston.
They introduced themselves, told the loan officer what kind of business they were starting, and asked for the loan.
Finally, it was time to shop! The girls were the consumers, and the boys were the producers for the first round.
Don't let the calmness fool you...the noise level got crazier as the rounds went on!
After all the shopping was done, the kids went back to the Bank of Johnston to return the loan.
Then they counted their profit. For those who could not pay back the full amount, they had to work around the classroom to earn their money back.
Congratulations to the top 3 winners!
Best. Social Studies. Lesson. EVER.
I went home completely exhausted, but it was totally worth it!
