We Make Transactions with Money

We Make Transactions with Money

Practice: After the students study conscious consumer behaviors in the Conscious Consumer unit, they determine their needs with their families and create a shopping list. A supermarket visit is arranged together with the students. Students buy the products to meet the needs of their homes according to their list. They make their choices by using the information they learned in the class about what to pay attention to when buying a product, make the payment, and get a receipt. After the trip, they create problems related to the listed products in the classroom. They solve each other’s problems.
