Mrs. Murray's Fifth Grade (2006-2007)
Mrs. Murray's fifth grade class, with some help from Mr. Chandler, is participating in a stock market simulation that is sponsored by UAB. The class is divided into teams of three, with each team receiving $100,000 of virtual cash to invest. Students have researched various companies and have bought and sold a number of stocks since the simulation began. Students continue to look for companies that are showing a profit gain in order to increase their portfolio. The simulation will run until early December. Currently, one of the 5th grade teams is in first place in overall profit for the 60+ Alabama schools participating.
