you received some great ideas. Also taking care of a child. I've seen where they take a baby doll and it becomes thier baby. They have take it everywhere they go, plan meals for it and everything. This teaches them what it like to have a child along with work. Work is thier schooling. THey there are days they have to nurse the baby as the baby is sick.
those are the days you allow them to know that the next day is that way. See what they will come up in taking care of thier sick child while they are a work,
they had to write about it as well.

Budgeting is very important.

I saw a teacher once get alot of blank checks
and each student received from the teacher so much for the week. It was play money, they had to log it into thier book, write checks or do debit or credit for the things they need thought the week. They had to show thier tickets and thier books to the teacher.
See if they could budge it or not. Then the following week what was left over is added to thier account.
They did this for the entire year.
Oh, the budget had to include a letter from the parent on how much
rent, food, washing, electric bill, phone bill, etc would be for that student. That student had to pay thier parents for these things either weekly or monthly which comes out of thier account.
At the end of the yr they were able to tell if they made it or not.
At mid term they had to pretend they had to move, and had to come up with a deposit.
From time to time the teacher told them that they had a plumbing problem, or another kind of applicance need. They had to budge that and they never knew when this was going to occur until the teacher told them it had.
Some had momey for it and others didn't.
Again it showed the students how you needed a little bit of extra money.

If they wanted to put some into a saving account they was extra points for that student, but the teacher never told them whata to do with thier money.. sOME Students invested thier money into stocks, etc.
at the end of the year it was interesting to see what the students did..
Oh, this was a grade as well...

I also thought that was such a neat idea how the teacher did this and things the students learned during this course.

Another teacher that I sub for in Homemaking showed movies on abuse, drugs, etc once a month to thier student.. then they had to write up a paper of if they agree or not, and why.

If I learn of any sites I will be back to post.
but right now my brain is dead.
