Hands on Economics I teach all subjects to second graders at a charter school in California.

The 'Our Thriving Economy' project is experiential and the learning that takes place is based on real-world interactions. In order to make our classroom store as realistic as possible, we would love to have working, real-world tools and supplies; necessary items we cannot afford.

Our in-class simulated economy includes jobs, salaries, a bank, checkbooks, and a class store. Cash registers would make the store tremendously more authentic.

Your help will ensure that my students have a significant real world learning experience.
