Intro: Budget Worksheet
- Students complete the Budget Worksheet, where they create a household budget based on earning B.C.'s minimum wage and paying the average amount in rent (in pairs).
- How much does a typical person need to make in order to maintain a modest lifestyle in the Metro Vancouver area?
- What additional monthly expenses were not mentioned on the worksheet?
- What would you do if you didn't earn enough money to pay your expenses?
Activities:
- A recap of chapters 10-11. I realize a lot of students didn't get a chance to read through the end of chapter 12.
- Mr. Mac reads chapter 12 aloud to the class.
- Students spend the rest of the block working on their Reader Response Journals. Have this fourth one complete for Thursday for sure.
- Mr. Mac will circulate to see how much progress is being made.
- If students need to use this time to complete or print any assignments from our Creative Writing unit, please do so. No additional class time will be given.
