Create City

 We have three unique classes in our middle school: guitar class, piano keyboard class, and CREATE class. CREATE class allows students to enrich their knowledge of the academic areas while exploring technology. CREATE stands for "Creative Research Experiences And Technology Exploration". This year they created a create city and create city is a marketplace simulation activity. Each student has to create a product and sell it in our marketplace one day a week. They open during each CREATE Class on Wednesdays and Thursdays.You can either give $1 (American currency) to get $15 (CREATE money)
OR you can pay with fins (5 fins = $1 in CREATE money).
I took all my 6th, 7th and 8th grade students to the create city. They had lots of great product. This one student brought homemade facial product like a facial scrubs that was made of sugar and avocado. This one student made necklaces, bracelets and ribbons. They were so pretty. I bought some for my niece. She loves pink, so I bought pink bracelet, necklace and ribbon. Majority of students brought homemade cookies, brownies, cupcakes, cappuccino, coffee, chocolate filled waffles and hot wings, etc.
