Grades 5-8. Put your classes to work today on the challenges they'll face tomorrow! With this flexible life-decisions simulation, students design imaginary futures for themselves based on information available now. Engaging activities include creating plans for a home, drawing up menus, budgeting for fun stuff, and making projections about the future environment. Using Microsoft Works 3.0 or ClarisWorks 4.0, students will learn how to design their future, plan decisions, and resolve discrepancies. As they make value decisions and learn about their family, environment, and society, they will sharpen their skills in writing, organizing, critical thinking, decision making, and applying math to real-life consumer problems. Activities include creating plans for a home, drawing up menus, budgeting for entertainment, and making projections about the future environment. Your students will explore their options for tomorrow while sharpening the computer and higher-level thinking skills they need today! |
