Looking for a fresh way to integrate economics and science in your elementary classroom? In this engaging workshop, students use picture books and an amusement park theme to explore force and motion alongside economic decision-making. They’ll design their own ride or stand while deciding between one-price admission or pay-as-you-go, bringing real-world thinking into the classroom. K-5 classroom teachers in attendance will receive a featured book of their choice.
