The students just began their second half of senior year by starting Economics. We discussed the fundamentals of economics and how an understanding is so vital to being a citizen in America. After this section the students began a section on one of the most important pieces of economics, money. We have discussed some of the various characteristics that money has, (portability, divisibility, etc.). As an example, I brought in money that I had acquired while traveling abroad; this was a great opportunity for the students to observe what other countries currencies look like. As a project to illustrate their understanding of this topic, each student is designing their own money. They have to explain the various characteristics of their money and then illustrate what their money looks like either through a detailed drawing or a physical representation of the money.
