Trade Fair

Each year fifth grade students have a trade fair day. This activity is created to simulate trading and bartering in earlier times. It also gets students involved in effectively advertising their products. As always I was more than impressed with their creations! After the trade fair we held a discussion on how it went. The fifth graders amazed me with the strong connections they made to economics and the trading life of early settlers.I am so proud of my class' accomplishments!
