In this fun free-market simulation, students learn the basics of the free-market by participating in an imaginary market where they negotiate sales. They learn that everything in a free-market-- prices, what is made, how it is made, and who buys it-- is determined by the interactions between free consumers and free suppliers. Kids also learn the relationship between price and the number of consumers or suppliers; and they learn how monopolies and oligopolies can rig the market. Perfect to introduce capitalism. Absolutely everything you need to run this simulation comes with your download.

If you are doing distance learning, use Zoom Breakout Rooms for the negotiations.
