This year, fifth graders are participating in their own little market economy. They earn “Belden Bucks” by showing up to school, working their classroom jobs, winning review games, and much more. This money can be spent on small rewards throughout the year and at the end-of-year classroom auction. Unfortunately, they are also learning the harsh realities of taxes and rent payments for their desk and locker.
Pictured are the 5th graders with their “bucks”.
