A Penny for Your Thoughts
Hand out an assortment of money.
Where has this money been? What has it been used for?
What about the year it was created? What were the current events that year?
What is it made from? Where are those resources found? Who lives in that place? Who mined the materials for the coin?
Why is the coin scratched, edges worn, different color?
Tell the story of the coin from it's perspective (personification).
Tell the story from someone who held the coin and why the money was significant.
Tell the story from someone who helped make the coin.
