#10

Students continued to work on the Exhibition projects.  They worked on gathering the last bit of information for their Presidential Pages and started constructing their booklets.  The new due date for this project is Friday, May 18th.  


We concluded the day with an Economic/Budget Activity.  Students watched a BrainPop video on why people use budgets and they were randomly assigned a job w/ a monthly income.  Over the next week students are going to examine fictional budgets and go through simulations where they have to deal with expected and unexpected expenses.  Lastly they will write a reflection on the budget activity and I will take a final writing grade from that.
