Week+Five

**__Activity One:__** Zero has offered to dig part of Stanley's hole each day in exchange for Stanley teaching Zero to read. This exchange is sometimes also known as "bartering". Bartering is when one person offers to "pay" for a service or talent with a service or talent of their own instead of paying money. Do you thinks Zero's and Stanley's agreement is fair? Why or Why not? (Your answer should NOT be a simple yes or no. Consider starting with "I think Stanley and Zero's agreement is ...")  __**Activity Two:**__ Remember! Zero was good at digging holes and Stanley could read. They each were good at something that the other person was not. That's what makes a successful trade or barter of services. What kind of talent or service could you offer to someone as a barter? What kind of assistance or talent would you be looking for in return? Please answer with complete sentences and make this connection a small paragraph with at least four sentences (this means we are looking for details) == . Josh said: This is fair because it is a good agreement because Zero can dig Stanley’s hole and Stanley can help him read. Josh said: I could mow lawns for people in exchange for hip hop classes because I want to learn hip hop and I think they would want me to mow their yard. That is my agreement.

Rach said: I think Stanley and Zero's agreement is fair because Zero is digging part of Stanley hole and Sanley is teaching Zero how to do the ABC's, write, and spelling and that's a fair agreement.

If I made a barter it would not be like Stanley and Zero's. I would teach them how to dance if someone will teach me how to make fudge. That'sthe agreement I would do. Like Stanley and Zero's agreement.

Brittany said:(Activity one) I think its kind of fair, but kind of not fair. I think it is fair because Zero is a fast digger and he likes to dig, and he gets something in exashang. I do not think it is fair because Zero has to dig extra hard. I guss in the long run it is fair, because Zero wants to read and Stanley wants a break, and they both liked the idea.

Brittany said:(Activity two) I could offer food or to braid there hair. I would ask for some kind of food, ledpencil, pencil, or eraser. My friends and I barter, like when my friend wanted a chip and she traded it for 4 mint. My friends and I trade erasers, pens, or ledpencil all the time, like the time I gave my friend an eraser for a ledpencil.

Kyle said:(Activity one) Yes I think the agreement is fair because they are both getting paid back the same amount.
