Week Fourteen

This Week


This week is our last in our study of macroeconomics. Students covered unemployment, types of money, and looked at different sectors of the economy.

Upcoming Week


Next week is an important one as students take their final unit quiz on macroeconomics. Mr. Grieve gave them a review sheet today to take home and study this weekend, and next Monday we will have an entire day for review of the material we've covered thus far by playing Jeopardy! Then, on Tuesday, students will take the test.

After the test students will begin our final project, which will take us nearly to the end of the year, although there will be a comprehensive final exam the last week of the quarter. Please check out the DRSS Local Economics Podcast Project Facebook page for more information on what they'll be doing for the final weeks. Again, if you can help us with our interviews, please fill out this form.

As an aside, we are one month out from the end of the stock market simulation and the breakdown as of 9:30 this morning was as follows:

Mr. Grieve is up 4.14% overall, the rest are displayed here:

Any teams who finish with an overall higher score than me at the end of the simulation get donuts!
Have a great weekend!

~Mr. Grieve
