Who says 2nd graders can’t become entrepreneurs? After reading a unit about this concept, our 2nd grade students got to participate as both “Buyers" and "Sellers” at our first annual 2nd Grade Marketplace! Students made goods to sell at the market, including bookmarks, pins, artwork, and necklaces. They then were able to advertise their items for sale and shop at other stores. What a great experience for them to learn first hand, in a real life scenario, how money exchanges hands and people work hard to earn an income.
