This week the 2/3 class was challenged with researching a natural resource.  In teams of two the groups chose a natural resource from VT and have spent the week looking for information to present to the bank.  

Some of the questions researched were: Is the natural resource renewable?  How is it used? What industries are built around it?  Why is it important to VT?  What is VT doing to protect it?

The teams were asked to present this information for sale to the bank on Friday.  The bank will be purchasing this information for up to $75.  Then teams will make the decision on how to divide their earnings.  Finally, each student will record their money as a credit on their bank sheets.
