Hello!
This week I'd like to share a bit about a project I've been working on with my 7th and 8th grades in culmination of our unit on economics. We are using a game called Capitalism II. In the game students are tasked to work together or compete as they produce and sell products for their made up corporations. So far the students have been highly receptive and are learning the perils and joys of supply and demand first hand! I've attached a copy of my lesson plan/instructions packet. The player who makes the most money wins.
