Today our focus was on:

• Reviewing the foreign exchange rates homework from the night before.
• The Main Topic - Inflation - Why Everyone Can't Be A Millionaire.
• Inflation activity - Mr. M led a simulation in which he flooded an economy with money and the disastrous result. 
• After this, we took a look at the inflation meltdown in Zimbabwe. We looked at some Youtube videos for this.
• Finally, in some classes Mr. M showed how inflation could be used as a weapon (Operation Bernhard in WWII).
