Today our agenda was:

• We are working our way to beginning the Wisconsin Stock Market Simulation. Mr. M began with a quick review of the homework.
• Next, Mr. M explained the difference between stocks and bonds. 
• After this, Mr. M used a couple of student volunteers to model how selling short works.
• Finally, Mr. M described what a stock split was.
• Students are thinking about the possible stock teams they will create, plus they used YahooFinance to begin doing some research on companies.
