As part of our STREAM class, our Middle School students are learning real world skills. They have jobs they can apply for in the class - banker, teller, cashiers, cleaners, messenger, photographer, etc. They need to fill out an application for these jobs and then interview for them. From these jobs they earn a pay check, which is "class cash" deposited into their "bank account". They are learning how to write a check, keep a checkbook, and balance a checking account. They are also learning how to save their class cash to purchase items from the class store.
