Market Day

Our school uses a stamp reward system to encourage the students to not speak Korean, do their homework, and to study for their translations tests. The students are able to exchange their stamps for Hagwon money. We then have a Market Day where the students are able to spend their money on food, notebooks, stickers and what not. We have held off having a Market Day for various reasons and our students have been eager to spend their money. Little did they know that inflation had set in and prices had to be raised. The children always have a good time and their is a fair amount of bartering that goes on. I think that everyone enjoys Market Day, especially the teachers.
