ISAAC'S TEACHER EXPLAINS . . .

the learning activities and how Isaac is participating. She explains that . . .

students spend time at each center and then rotate to the next when the teacher indicates. The centers include the following: (1) reading about marketing techniques, including successful businesses in the state, (2) looking up advertizements in a paper and analyzing what it was about the advertizements that attracted their attention to better understand marketing strategies; (3) using information off the website for the U.S mint exploring the new quarters put out by the mint for each state including what each represents; and (4) studying stock market reports in the newspaper to understand what the numbers in the columns mean and then using this information to determine how well a business in which they are interested is doing.
