Develop Problem-Solving Skills
Grades 5 and Up
Students improve math, problem-solving, and communication skills in
this real-life business simulation where they manage a busy
concession stand in a big-city stadium. Students interpret
information, keep records, determine prices, and plat marketing
strategies.
By gathering information from a variety of sources in the Office,
students can make purchasing and pricing decisions. Students see
if their plans yield profitable results when they open the Stand
for business! Will they be able to reach their goals?
With access to an assortment of tools students can accomplish their
goals. An electronic checkbook, a calculator, a franchise report,
a bulletin board of stadium events, and a daily weather report are
among the resources available. To add to the realism of the
simulation, students encounter unexpected events-both opportunities
and potential pitfalls-that they handle while working in the Office
and running the Stand.
-- CURRICULUM SKILLS --
* Addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division
* Recognizing patterns

I love this game! I get to play it every once and a while at school and its great! Its hillarious but you actually do get to think about busniess stratagies and experement with different outcomes from everything from pricing to weather. This game is not only educational its amazing fun! The phone is hysterical and so is watching Frank the Weather Weiner! The different difficulties make it fun for everyone! BUY IT!

This game is fun, and at the same time you are learning important math skills. I played it in school and now I love it! You are given an office, and you are in charge of a hot dog stand at a stadium where concerts, football, baseball and soccer games are held. You are assigned an event and then you are to check the weather report so you know how much stuff to order. There is also a book shelf where you can look up the average amount of things sold at your event with you specific weather. This game is AWESOME!!!!
