MARKET DAY

Since the beginning of April, we have been working hard to earn money to attend "Market Day." Market Day is where you set up your own store and sell items to the rest of the 5th grade. You buy the products with play money that each student earned. Each student had to earn $1000. You could earn money with table points, notes brought back signed, 100% on tests, A's on units, etc. This was our May end-of-month activity!
Congratulations to the top 5 qualifiers:
1. Hunter
2. Ryan W.
3. Elizabeth
4. Brook
5. Linzey

I remember doing this kind of store at Shelly when I was there as a fifth grader. I loved it.
