GMS 6th grade Career Tech students explored the world of Marketing & Sales. Students were challenged to design a toy using only paper and tape. They needed to convince fellow classmates that their product was the best by using an elevator pitch and demonstrating. We have some pretty creative minds in this class!

GMS 6th grade Social Studies students in Mrs. Velagic's class participated in bartering day! Kids could bring in goods or do services to barter - just as they bartered in ancient civilizations- it gave them perspective on demand of goods, knowing your audience, creating good trade relationships, and understanding that not all trades are one for one trades!
