Market Day is Coming!
The culminating activity for our social studies economics unit will be “Market Day”, which will be Friday, May 16th. Each student is to work at home to create a product to sell at “Market Day.” Please note that students will be using play money to buy their goods, so whatever your child decides they want to make and market should not be a big out-of-pocket expense for you and should be made by the student.
