This blog will be used as a means to maintain contact between school, parents, and students. By subscribing to the class blog ("Follow by Email" on the right side of the page), you will receive an email update between 3 and 5 p.m. every day (I will do my best...).
Mission Statement
Mission Statement: My classroom is a place where students should feel welcome: everyone should feel free to learn and participate without worrying about put-downs
or soul-crushing gossip.

MATH:
1. Come up with a base salary to start the game. Be prepared to defend your choice. Remember, you are paying for everything with this salary.
2. Gameplay: What are the components of a "turn?" Can we play this as a whole group? Or, do we play it in smaller groups? If whole group, what does a turn look like? I'm envisioning people having opportunities to buy items, save money, work extra hours...that kind of thing. Do we make a game board? Do we just use the class? Open to all ideas.
