Activity:
A. Students create their own classroom Monimarkety where they can practice earning and spending money.
Students elect a role (job) in the classroom that requires them to complete tasks (chores) regularly
to earn an income. These jobs can be created by the students or determined by the teacher.
Examples of jobs may be:
• Classroom Janitors – keep room clean & tidy at the end of each day.
• Bankers – make the currency (may be paper coins & notes). Create a money box for students who
decide to save. Each child approaches the bankers to deposit their pay and get a balance.
• Tuck-shop monitors – collect student’s orders for the tuck shop daily.
• Classroom Posties – run messages for the teacher when necessary.
The currency once earned can be redeemed for items of value, giving the students an opportunity to make
a spending or saving decision.
