This is an excellent game to play with a class involving plenty of number work; competition; co-operation; business sense! Students can play in teams or individually, depending on class size and ability.

This game is great fun at the end of term in maths or business classes. The basic premise is that students buy stock low, sell it high, and try to be the one(s) with the largest bank balance at the end of the game. Economies of scale can be utilised on the "variables" tab of the simulator. Students also have to be careful how high they go with the sales price, otherwise they may have a lot of stock left on their hands for the next day.

Good luck and have fun!
