Play Dough Economics

Trade or Barter? That was the question that Ms. Brittany's

Economics students were trying to answer.















Students in Ms. Brittany's Economics class participated in Play Dough Economics to compare and contrast bartering and trading with money. Students got to use their creativity and imaginations to produce goods from Play Dough and classroom materials, to trade and barter. Students found that trade with money has many advantages over bartering!
