December 20%

I will evaluate my project, by taking the response that I got from the middle school staff, and figure out if they would actually take the idea into consideration, or if they would just look right past it. I will also see if the middle school staff thought this was a good idea, or a semi-good idea. If they had any questions or if they needed help the with program I would help them

This month I have emailed the middle school staff, giving them my ideas and explaining to them why I'm doing this.

Obsticals that I overcame we're trying to get ahold of the middle school staff, and waiting for their response. I had to figure out a time where they were able to sit down and talk, and when I could sit down and talk. We couldn't come up with any times were we both weren't busy at the same time. Settling with an email,

Schools

Communistic schools, are the schools that are public, you will have some choices of  what you are going to do? They will pick the schools and classes that you are going to do. Socialistic schools are the schools that are going to be semi public and semi private. And you will have some choices of what you want to do. Capitalistic schools are the schools where you will have no personal choice, and you will be told what you are going to do.

Lemonade cost

To make a cup of lemonade it cost me 11.2 cents per cup. When I figured this I had to buy the cups, and then figure out how many cups were in each pitcher. I then found how much the other products would cost for a cup. And added everything together. 

Min. Wage

I think that raising minimum wage would be a bad thing. I think that it would be a bad thing because, when the prices of jobs go up then the prices of everyday items are going to go up.

http://www.fee.org/the_freeman/detail/the-minimum-wage-good-intentions-bad-results/#axzz2mzmMrTqX- says that there would be 5 major changes if we were to higher minimum wage. These changes are:
1) There would be a loss of employment
2) The economics would have a loss because there would be less product
3) There would be a finical loss to the society
4) There would be funding in training people for jobs and for people to get new jobs
5) The net loss in society for everyday items would go up because the prices of labor costs would have to be covered, and then foreign competition may get more of the income for their company.
This is good proof as to why raising minimum wage would be a bad thin, because there are going to be more than just 5 downfalls.

Says that if we raise the minimum wage that it is going to cost 24% more to hire a person to work for you. If the inflation went up to 6 or 8 percent, it would end up having a burden on the bigger companies. Also the prices of  aluminum, steel, copper would start go up more and more.

   

Lemonade Stand Game Vocab

Variable- The variable in this game are the things that you can change. The things that change throughout the game are the price of the cup, the amount of sugar you will use in the cup, the lemons that you will put into the pitcher, and the amount of ice that you will put into the cup. The weather is also a variable because its changes from day to day. The price of the cup of lemonade will also change based on the weather.

Constant- The constants in this game are the cups because you are always using one no matter what.

Perishable- The perishables in the game are the lemons, your sugar, and ice. They are perishables because they go bad and you cant keep them forever, they end up going bad.
