This project relates to cost vs benefit because we use all $10 on wha we think will work better like having a larger amount of noodles vs one stronger one.


Future consequences count with each noodle we added there was a higher chance the tower would fall later.


Thinking at the margin relates because each noodle we added would amount to a taller tower overall even if there was a risk.]]> 2022-04-04 14:23:55 UTC https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2128758280 https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2128765292 Scarcity trade offs because we had to choose which resources would be most beneficial. Cost vs benefit because linguini costs more but has the added benefit of being stronger. Future consequences count because the choices of resources we made had the consequences of how our tower came out.]]> 2022-04-04 14:26:57 UTC https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2128765292 https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2128770252 Scarcity causes trade offs- we had a limited number of resources to build the Eiffel Tower so we had to decide what sacrifices were going to be made to the tower
Cost vs benefits- we compared the benefits of using small vs large marshmallows and linguini vs spaghetti 
Thinking at the margin- We split the linguini noodle to make it taller but it did not make it taller so the benefit of adding one more was not worth the cost]]> 2022-04-04 14:29:05 UTC https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2128770252 https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2128772810 1. Scarcity we did not have much money and there was not much resources to work with.
2. Cost vs. Benefits We thought about the benefits of each item and whether the cost was worth it
3. Thinking at the margin, because we had ten dollars and had to think of each produce so we could spend all the money strategically.]]> 2022-04-04 14:30:12 UTC https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2128772810 https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2128772977 Cost vs benefit because you had to decide the material and what would benefit you the most.
Future consequences because what you decided in the beginning you had to go through with.
Thinking at the margin, we had to decide if the big noodles were better then the other noodles that costed less.]]> 2022-04-04 14:30:16 UTC https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2128772977 at256831 https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2128773548 Nick, Angelina, Emily 


3 Principles: Future Consequences, Cost vs. Benefits , scarcity forces trade - offs

Future consequences: We were thinking about how the tower would look like and how the structure would be. 

Costs vs. benefits: We picked the big marshmallow over the small one because it has more to give.

Scarcity forces trade-offs: Due to the limit amount of money we could not buy everything we wanted to , for an example another big marshmallow.]]> 2022-04-04 14:30:32 UTC https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2128773548 https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2129218759
Scarcity forces trade off because money was scarce and you had to trade off each recourses that you could have spent on other things if you had unlimited money.

Cost vs. Benefits because the big marshmallow may have cost a lot but it benefited us as a great, large base.

Future consequences matter because we got punished for not making a stable base, in result it fell.

Height: 2 1/2 in

2- Markets Coordinate to Trade, we traded money to get out supplies we needed
3- Future Consequences Count, because when you play the noodle and marshmallow it could of been a bad idea or a good idea in the end. ]]> 2022-04-04 18:16:40 UTC https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2129225957 https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2129226641 Scarcity because we had limited amount of supplies to make the tower.
Cost vs Benefits because we had to think and buy whatever benefited us the best
Thinking at the margin because we had to buy marshmallows and spaghetti’s at different quantities.

When we bought the items, it helped with the height of the structure. 
Future Consequences Count
In the future, if we do this again, we can learn from it by getting different materials.
Scarcity Forces Trade-offs
We didn’t have enough marshmallows, which caused us to tear them apart to make smaller pieces.]]> 2022-04-04 18:17:30 UTC https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2129227469 https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2129228369 Future consequences: We didn’t buy enough noodles to build the design we wanted and we didn’t plan ahead very well.
Scarcity forces tradeoffs: We had limited money to purchase materials so we were trying to decide what materials mattered most.
Thinking at the margin: we compared different materials with their different costs and benefits.]]> 2022-04-04 18:17:58 UTC https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2129228369 https://padlet.com/along45/43o97h61qprc/wish/2129228995 Cost vs benefits. We used less cost and got more benefits

Thinking at the Margin. We had to use our money wisely because we only had 10 dollars and not a lot of resources to buy with that money.

Future Consequences Count
Think of how to make our structure stand and not tip over
