Trade



Students can learn about trading by having a trade fair in the classroom like we did in our social studies class. The students can either bring in their own items to trade or the teacher can bring in items to make it more equal for everyone. In this activity they learn that there are certain items that are always valued such as food. They also learn that some people will trade for items that they need and some will trade for what they want and not necessarily need. This activity helps students think critically about what the majority of the people want and need so that they can provide those items to make a good trade.
