Wow what a great day! We were treated to the Winter Concert put on by our Grade Kindergarten, and grade 1 and 2 students. They did an amazing job!!
We were also very busy with our very first Mini Mall. Our grade 2 buddies came to shop at our stores. Our shoppers had $400.00 to spend at our various stores. Students leaned about marketing, and reducing their prices to help move their inventory. We also had to complete a lot of calculations to figure out the correct amount to charge our customers as well as to calculate the change we need to give them. Our buddies really enjoyed the experience as well!
Here is some of the student feedback about Mini Mall:
"We learned that it can be very challenging to run a shop. I had to use my strategies for subtraction to calculate the correct change." E.K.F
"Soemtimes people were giving me fifty dollars when the cost was $16.00, that was challenging to subtract." S.C.
"It was really easy because I am good at working with money." J.J.
'I liked helping the buddies count the money for their purchases," M.C.
Have a wonderful evening!
