Opportunity Cost Sundaes

For this activity, we each got $5.00 worth of classroom money. Each of the stuff you could put on our sundae cost "money." First we had to plan what you wanted on it and write it on a chart. Next, you would get in line and wait. Then, when it was your turn you would tell Mrs. Sims what you wanted on it. Finally after that, you'd sit down and enjoy your master piece sundae. Mine was so good and I could barely eat during lunch! -Aneysha

Market Day

Classroom market

we had a classroom market today. Its like when you bake,or color, or even make a type of craft.

                     Some of the selling things were.........

                       

                    Paper Airplanes

                    Cupcakes

                    Stress Balls

                    Cookies and 

                    Book Marks                  

                              

                          We were praticeing for school of economics for the profit of the money and how 

            we handle it and keep control of our money. The one how had the most money in our class was olivia. Shes the one who had the stress balls, and i guess everyone wanted one.But this is supost to teach you how sell your products and what price to put on them. So this is how it worked half of the class went out and opened there stand. And got ready to sell. While the other half 

                                got 5 dollars from Mrs.Sims to go spend.

                                                             After the time was up we switched and the other half of the class got to go sell and spend. but the key to this whole thing is not to spend at once because you have not got to other stores yet and you might wont something but then again you dont have money. The highest amount of money spent was 30 dollars by olivia. And this was called Classroom Market.

Making is Bread

http://hostthetoast.com/rosemary-olive-oil-crock-pot-bread/

We made Rosemary Crock pot bread it was pretty good but some people were saying it was kinda dry on the inside and needed so butter. But it was also learning in the process of making it. We had three           charts/ paper that said Natural Resources Human Resources and don't forget about Capital Resources!

Natural Resources-Resources from nature that get used up to become the product.
Human Resources-Workers.
Capital Resources-Money,buildings,and tools one needs to run a business.

                      This is how it worked let me explain. When we added an ingredient we wrote up on the paper in which one it went into, then we would add another ingredient and another and another.

Flag Economics

We did this project where each group had certain construction paper to make a flag with. It was so much fun.. When we got to the end we all learned that day supply and demand is hard

school of economics!

Ice Cream

Today our class made homemade ice cream. The way that we made ice cream was we used Mrs. Sims ice cream maker.We mixed all of the ingredients together and rolled the ice cream maker sround on the floor four at a time.The reason that we made ice cream was to learn about supply and demand.While groups made ice cream, others were reading and were on the mini-laptops. On the computers we used ben ans jerry's ice cream website to learn about supply and demand. It was alot of fun, and the ice cream was super yummy!!

Bread Baking

Today our class made bread. We sorted out the different supplies by natural resources (resources that come form nature.)  , human resources (a good or service provided by a human) , and capital resources.(a man made product that costs money) we made bread because when our class goes to the school of economics, we will be in a simulation. Our grade level will pretend to be immigrants coming from Ellis Island. Later that day, we read a book on immigrants that came from foreign country's. While baking the bread every time a resource was used we added that resource to our posters. Our class had so much fun baking the bread and we hope that we can do it again.

Here is the recipe we used and the link to the blog:
