2nd Grade Market

4/16/2013

10 Comments

 
     On Monday we had our 2nd Grade Market Day.  Everyone made a good or provided a service in our class.  We had money to spend that we had earned from our behavior for the last two weeks.  Some of the things that we made were paper masks, drawings, jewelry, rubber band bracelets, clay sculptures and book marks.  We also had some games like bowling, knock down, and the shell game. The other 2nd grade class, Ms. Young's class, came to our market to buy our goods and services.  We also went to their market to buy goods and services.  We really liked the pencils with the duct tape flower on the top and the flags that sold out really quickly.  We liked the bracelets, necklaces and head bands.  One of our favorite services was the tattoo stand.  It was so cool having and going to the markets.  

     We learned a lot about economics.  We learned about how to use money to buy less expensive things first.  If we didn't, we would run out of money really fast.  We learned that if you are a seller you should make a lot of products so that you don't sell out so quickly.  We learned that signs help to attract attention and tell the price, but buyers need to pay attention to what the sign really says.  Having our market let us learn first hand what economics is all about!

What do you think?
1)  Have you ever made a mistake when you're shopping?
2)  What was your favorite thing to buy if you were at the market?
3)  If you had a market what would you make and sell?
4)  Have you ever been to a market?

Dear Mrs.Lance,
Hi it's Maysen. I loved market day. I made a mistake shopping and it did not feel very good. I bought something I didn't need to buy. I liked SR and LJ's service. I would sell groceries , candy , toys, and drinks. I think I have been to a market, but I do not know. Have you every been to a better market?
Love,
Maysen
