We will be covering this by becoming ‘Elves’ and transforming our classroom into our very own workshop.
We will be adapting and improving our ideas and looking at different materials to construct our models.
We will be budgeting our money and buying the materials and resources online – ensuring we price our products to cover our costs.
We will then be looking at the different roles in a business and learning how to use money.
We will be inviting you in to ‘buy’ some of the pupil’s creations. (Date to follow)
This sounds like a fab way of learning lots of different concepts.
I’m sure the kids will have lots of fun with this.
Great idea to make learning fun for the kids. Bobby will enjoy this.
