Market day!

We had a fantastic market day a few weeks ago at the end of our money unit. We all got opportunities over a week to earn money in the classroom (play money of course!) and then we had a market day so we could spend it!! Both room 6 and 7 joined in and during the week we made stuff to sell on market day like jelly, popcorn, fairy bread, magnets, finger puppets and fruit kebabs. We had 15 minutes to be a seller so we had to work out change for people and 15 minutes to be a buyer where we had to work out what we could buy with our money. Mr Thew even came and joined in! It really helped us to learn about money and the value of things and it was heaps of fun too!
