Mini-Society
Mini-Society is a unit we end
the year with which follows our Community unit. During Mini-Society
the students develop their own community in the classroom. They decide
on a name, design a flag, and design and print the money to go along with
the community. Each student then decides on a job or a business
that they will open to earn mini-society money. This could be selling
popcorn or lemonade, painted rocks or shells, bookmarks, fans, pictures,
etc. Anything they can make easily by themselves or with a minimum
of help from their parents.
It is a very busy time but
everybody has fun and the children learn a lot about earning and saving
money. They already know a lot about spending!
