I teach a JH quarter class, and we were planning on doing a Market Day, so I would be doing 4 Market Days in a year. Is that way too much for my first year?

# data[].attributes.body
Ethan, I often constrain students to certain material limits for projects and sometime allow additional material purchases with YE dollars--really makes their peers wish they had some extra dollars.

# data[].attributes.body
YE $$ will be so helpful in motivating students in all courses!

# data[].attributes.body
My entire school participated in Market Day. My students loved it. Because Market day was so visible at my school, my entrepreneurship class enrollment has increased.

Thanks this has been very helpful. the poker chips sound good for virtual activity.  also on my last workshop they discussed virtual games really interested.  DeVoria Simmons

# data[].attributes.body
Since we have to social distance, the poker chips are washable. Another thing I did was to assign a student to be the banker. Students who were more introverted loved being the banker.

# data[].attributes.body
Love the idea about putting away the cell phones

# data[].attributes.body
I plan to give YE dollars for assignments turned in on time.

# data[].attributes.body
My students all wanted to be in the newspaper through photos; I took lots of photos for and PBL created;

# data[].attributes.body
I like the Poker Chip idea!

# data[].attributes.body
I used poker chips for YE dollars. My students loved carrying the chips and they were easier for them to keep track of.

# data[].attributes.body
BPA all the WAY!!!

Where do I begin? I'm a newbie!

I am as well! PHSN DECA :-)

Thanks Angie.  Goot idea

@Jill Taylor, No...you get to select which parts of the curriculum you wish...

# data[].attributes.body
@Scoot Johnson - Get the first auction in early to give the currency value. I would even try for first week or two.

Euranie Patin.    I plan to have students develop their engineering capstone into a business venture with YE.

# data[].attributes.body
Kimberly Jordan My summer YE camp students are doing a service project to help homeless people in a ministry house by providing books, toys and supplies.   I will reward with ye dollars as they do the assignments to make this project happen.

# data[].attributes.body
I try to do an auction during the second week.

# data[].attributes.body
My admin tech will use this curriculum for the whole year!

# data[].attributes.body
What do you think? First auction in the first month? Jose: First week!!!

# data[].attributes.body
@Scott Johnson - It is not the same experience  as a DECA competition.

# data[].attributes.body
I plan to use the vacant lot for my architecture students, but not sure yet about my Freshmen Engineers

# data[].attributes.body
I look forward to incorporating YE foundational components with FBLA projects such as community service and partnership with business.

# data[].attributes.body
Scott that's intriguing! I would love to talk about that with you.

# data[].attributes.body
Anyone ever use YE dollars to 'buy' materials for projects for students who cannot afford materials on their own?

# data[].attributes.body
DO you have to complete all of the YE curriculum to be part of the group? -Jose I think the idea is to complete the YE core activities. You can talk to the hello@youthentrepreneurs.org team

# data[].attributes.body
For our Capstone projects we set a project manager, communications manager, finance manager etc.  This way students work together and have personal responsibilities for their roles in the project.

# data[].attributes.body
what do you guys think about using DECA for a capstone? -Jose I think it depends on the competition right? I find it works for certain SkillsUSA competitions

# data[].attributes.body
Glenda Ferguson - Will try the virtual bank Jose suggested for Classroom economy.

# data[].attributes.body
I am excited to use the Capstone Projects with DECA and get more of my classroom students to join DECA that way

# data[].attributes.body
My Economics class will be completing the YE curriculum. Market Day at my school over the last 3 years has been super successful.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm excited to have my accounting students participate in DECA's finance competitions.

We are going to be using a Glowforge to make school swag as a class business/market day type activity.  We are in a unique school and so this will work for us.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm thinking of using YE dollars with my yearbook students.  Getting volunteers to take photos after school can be difficult...so this would be a way to run it like a business and pay them for their hard work.  (Jen Laity - IL)

# data[].attributes.body
I would recommend sharing curriculum with all teachers. YE can be integrated into core classes as well.

# data[].attributes.body
I love the idea of giving YE dollars for keeping your phone put away.

# data[].attributes.body
I'm planning on giving HUGE YE dollars when I see any innovation in any activity and assignment.

# data[].attributes.body
Turning in paperwork on time would be a great payout of YE dollars -Jose I agree with this!

# data[].attributes.body
I will use my YE Dollars to provide value to my students' work. I have taught YE one year and this year am transitioning to use it in my Accounting class.

# data[].attributes.body
Share with the community members what you are doing. They often donate items for your auction.

# data[].attributes.body
Our group#15 talked about using poker chips instead of the money to make it easier to give out and not be copied and the chips can be put in the washing machine to be sanitized!  Loved. That idea!

I give out dollars to kids who take the initiative to do things without being told, ie, sweeping up the class after, group 18

Jennifer - YES...mask management, too!  (Jen Laity - IL)

# data[].attributes.body
I think the YE Currency is also something I may pull into DECA especially if we are online, as a way to keep everyone involved.

# data[].attributes.body
I loved the idea given in my group about giving them paddles for the auction.  How fun!  Joslyn Heiniger

# data[].attributes.body
Great idea about the cell phones and bathroom breaks

# data[].attributes.body
I am excited to implement YE into my Media Arts class. My goal is to have students create their own production companies and produce things for local businesses. -Jose we should definitely talk about media arts!

Phone & Bathroom management with YE dollars sounds AMAZING (Jen Laity - IL)

I will use my YE dollars for my students who are wearing masks

Okay...now that I am signed in...let me type my response again!  I am totally new to YE as of a week ago but I am excited about the Class Economy and YE dollars.

# data[].attributes.body
My school is 100% Project Based Learning, and YE fits in perfectly. It provides the authenticity that students require. (Reposted after I signed into Padlet.)

# data[].attributes.body
Frequent auctions to keep YE having currency having value

# data[].attributes.body
I will be implementing YE this year and the YE currency is something I can do in all 5 of my preps. And I will use the YE money for Mask immediately

# data[].attributes.body
If I get asked to be paid, I usually won't pay.

# data[].attributes.body
I will use YE dollars to reward the students to wear masks as that is going to be a requirement for the class.

# data[].attributes.body
Different styles of auctions (silent, sale items, limited amount, etc.)

# data[].attributes.body
Really like that idea as well!  Encourages learning and taking risks!

# data[].attributes.body
Doing auctions during remote learning will be difficult.  Looking for great ideas! - Jose (it was easy using the chat system and then ship it to them using amazon or use digital gift codes)

# data[].attributes.body
I want to use my bucks in my culinary classes. for cooking assignments and assignments. Plate presentations the best. Jr. chopped. ect DeVoria Simmons

Like the idea of giving dollars to the staff members; my students using this will be a small number and we are a pre-12 district/building...so everyone knows everyone making this an easy concept to incorporate (Jen Laity - IL)

# data[].attributes.body
New to YE. Love hearing about observing FV behaviors (being principled) and rewarding them with YE dollars.

# data[].attributes.body
Great session!

# data[].attributes.body
I also got other teachers involved.

# data[].attributes.body
Have smaller auctions throughout the semester and then one larger auction with bigger priced items at the end of the semester.

# data[].attributes.body
I like the idea of encouraging trade among students with their YE auction prizes to enhance the auction even more.

# data[].attributes.body
I am totally new to this as of one week ago!  I am still learning but Im excited about the Class Economy and YE dollars.

# data[].attributes.body
I began incorporating YE last year but at a very basic level. I am excited to feel more confident in using YE.
Alison Morris - MS

# data[].attributes.body
Good tip I received...have several small auctions early and have a large auction towards the end of the semester or year.

This is my first year to try the curriculum. I am still trying to figure out how I will implement the classroom economy in a virtual setting. Karen Clark Yamamoto

I kind of dominated all of the time. Sorry about that.

Rick Sapp - I scaffold bucks.  I might give them for showing up on time at the start but stop doing so after a week or so

# data[].attributes.body
I plan to blend it into all of my classes this year
