YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE
So don't be shy and join market day! This is the day students bring the stuff from home that they don't need anymore but someone else might need. Students at our school used real money to make purchases from around 1000 students from 3rd Grade to 5th grade. At the end of the day each homeroom class will decide where to donate the money they earned. Some of them will sponsor students in difficult circumstances. Other classes will use the money for a pizza party. It is totally up to the students in each class to vote for an activity they want to support.
This year special booths for artistic displays of face painting and a fake tattoo workshop as well as plastic 3-D modeling were opened up. I like this new aspect of Market Day as it opens up student's creative and arts and crafts side. Instead of just selling old stuff they are creating something new.
Finally I like this event because teachers don't interfere. Students are free to sell whatever they want for whatever price they want and use the money in wany way they want. They are learning responsibility in decision making and principles of democracy. Most of all they are having fun. On the way I picked up a couple of bargains. My oldest son really needed a basketball and I found one there and some new shoes for my youngest.
This last picture gives you a clue about my workspace. I'm working on writing a song to fit our textbook expression in sixth grade. Fortunately our fifth grade key expression is, "How much is it?"
This is a beautiful move! Hope more schools round the world engage student in such humanistic and economic activities. Wish you ongoing love, health and prosperity <3
