= **Welcome to Mini-Economy!** = (Based on Mini-Society, a registered trademark by //Dr//. //Marilyn Kourilsky.)//

Mini-Society materials are temporarily unavailable. The purpose of this wiki is to fill that void by serving as a location to keep useful Mini-Society-like documents intended for classroom use and also as a place to collect other helpful resources.

In this interdisciplinary program students create a Market economy right in their classroom. They will earn income in classroom currency that they have designed, conduct market surveys, create goods & services…even learn how to price and sell them during special class Market Days! Watch your classroom society faces the same issues our adult society does.
