School Project Idea
Tomorrow, my school is having a shortage exercise where they will cut off the water supply and distribute ‘rations.’ I thought it would be clever to sell 5 Biscoff biscuits for $2, treating it like a “black market” scenario. This could add a layer of realism to the exercise, as in real life, shortages often lead to black markets with inflated prices. What do you all think?

Truancy Concerns – Seeking Advice I’m a high school freshman and I’ve missed five days of school, two of which I think may be excused.

TestNav Experience At our school, we have a program called TestNav that helps determine students’ future class placements. However, the tests are quite lengthy and feel repetitive. Since 3rd grade, the format hasn’t changed at all. Does your school use a similar system, or is it just us?
This is a really creative idea! It definitely adds an interesting twist to the exercise by simulating how people might respond to shortages in real life, including the emergence of black markets. Just make sure to keep it light-hearted and fun, and be aware of any school rules regarding selling items on campus. It might also be a good idea to ensure everyone understands it’s all in good fun and doesn’t create any real issues. Good luck, and enjoy the exercise!
