Stock Market Homework

I am excited to announce that our class is participating in the Stock Market Game. Throughout the next 10 weeks, we will participate in a stock market simulation. We will have the opportunity to compete with stock market teams across the county as well as the state.

Each week you will be responsible for creating a recommendation in your Stock Market Journal. I will collect your journals each Friday and give a weekly grade. Please remember to use your best spelling, grammar, and punctuation. Points will be deducted from late journals.

We will spend the months of January and February researching and completing our weekly Stock Search during class time. This should be a quick activity that takes around 15 to 20 minutes. Anyone who finishes their weekly Stock Search will have the remainder of the week to complete other activities in this packet. If you do not finish in class, you will need to work on it at home.

In March, we will spend only a few minutes each Friday buying, selling, or discussing stocks with classmates. You will need to research stocks at home so that you can bring suggestions to school.

We learned how to use yahoo. to research various stocks, so I would encourage you to look there first. Please feel free to talk to your family and friends to generate ideas. Use the other websites listed on my web page for additional research.

A few reminders:

• There is a Stock Market Game app that can be downloaded for easy trading.

• I have posted some of the guidelines that we discussed in class on our classroom website.

• Print more copies of this packet on my website.

Extra, Extra, Read All About It!

Congratulations! You have just been hired as the Financial Editor for the Dunwoody Daily. For your first assignment you will be responsible for creating a two-page financial newspaper. How you do it is up to you. Be creative.

Here are some things to think about:

• Will you gear it toward a child or toward an adult?

• What advertisements will you include?

• What articles will you include?

I will give you class time to work on this project; however, you will need to finish anything that is not finished in class at home. We will have computer access, so feel free to bring zip drives and any resources or materials that you think that you might need.

Some suggestions might be to write an advice column, letters to and from the editor, articles about investment tips, or current events concerning economics. Feel free to come up with your own ideas!

This assignment will be due March 31, 2017

Enrichment Opportunity (This is optional)

Choose a financial board game to play with your family or a small group of friends. Make sure you read all of the directions before playing! Some good economic board games are Pay Day, Monopoly, and The Game of Life.
