4th grade students are participating in Classroom Economy. Students have a classroom job. They earn classroom cash by doing their job, being kind, doing well on tests, using manners, etc. Students can also lose money for behaviors, talking, not following directions, being rude, etc. The 4th graders must also pay $1,000 rent on their desk each month. Cooper Criss was able to pay off his desk (and live rent free for the rest of 4th grade) by paying $3,000 all at once. Way to go, Cooper!
