Do I need it or do I want it? (Stage 1, Stage 2, Stage 3, Stage 4)

In this challenge, students learn that people have choices, and sometimes you need to wait for what you want.
ACTIVITY OUTLINE:
Do I need it? Or, do I want it?
In this fun interactive activity students will learn about needs and wants as we ask:
• How do we make sure we get what we need?
• Can we get everything we want?
• Why do some people use a list when grocery shopping?
• What would happen if you don’t use a list?
Students actively participate to discover answers to these questions and much more during this entertaining interactive activity.
