These eighth graders are learning firsthand whats so good about taxes. Erich Ultries students experiment with different tax policies using SimCity software, analyzing the impact of tax policy on a citys development and quality of life. After designing their own virtual city using the software, students work together to construct a giant dream city out of recyclable materials. They even get a chance to take on the role of tax assessor in their new community.
Standard F, grades 5-8
