The Tax Man Came Today!

To go along with our unit on money, we learned that today is TAX Day in America!  We learned what taxes are used for and had to pay up - $2.00 for everyone.  Students had to make a hard choice, could they afford to rent a fancy pen for writing and still pay their taxes.  We learned earlier in the week that when you rent something you are just borrowing it.  Be sure to ask about the collateral (or deposit) they have to leave!  I hope they ask you about your taxes (The Johnson's just mailed theirs yesterday!)
