Third Grade Cities Project
The Third Grade Cities Project is one of the highlights of our third graders' years. Cities is a fun way to learn about economics. Banks provide funding for businesses. Businesses pay rent and set prices for student-created products and service offerings. Customers shop among competing businesses, and everyone has an engaging learning experience to remember!
