Earning and Spending Money

1. Divide the class into two teams. Use the top hat and basket as game pieces.

2. Share turns as each team member comes up to roll the die. Move the game pieces along the corresponding number of spaces on the board. Click the small rectangle attached to the square to determine if the team earns or pays money. If the team does not have the proper amount of money then they can't buy the item given and their turn is forfeited.

3. Click the piggy bank to go to the bank. (The dollar at the top of the page is infinitely cloned.) When your transactions are finished click on "Return to Game Board".

4. The team that earns $25 first (or whatever amount the teacher decides) wins!
