All Inquiry groups marketed and sold their yummy healthy smoothies for smoothie dollars. Each person had a turn at being the smoothie shop keeper and two turns at being the purchaser.
The groups which made the most money -
1st - Patrick, Adam, Blake $64.50 (lemon yogurt, banana, strawberry, milk)
2nd - Jacana, Cerys, Erika $53.00 (banana, blueberries, milk)
3rd - Chloe, Emma, Jahdae $45.00 (banana, berries, vanilla bean yoghurt, milk)
Then groups then ranged from $44 down to $20.00. The children learnt that the dearer smoothie shops did not necessarily make the most money - as the shoppers looked around for a bargain. In addition to this, the children learnt that if you don't fill the glasses up (just putting a little bit in the bottom) then the shoppers went to a different stall to get more smoothie for the same price.
