Today we learned about how companies split themsleves into fractions called shares. People can buy and sell shares of their favorite companies. This is what creates the stock market. The example of Skippy the Stick Man showed how businesses can use stocks to grow and how normal people can make (and lose) money by owning shares of the companies.
We're now going to take it to the next step. Ridgecrest students will get to manage $10,000 of fake money on WeSeed.com. Together, we will put together a portfolio. Along the way, we will use our math standard of multiplying decimals and other forms of analysis to make good decisions. In order to participate in the Ridgecrest group, you must have an email address. If you do not have one, we can create one for you.
