BizTown- Homework

We had a great day at Biztown. You got to be adults with real jobs, breaks, and the ability to shop where you wanted. In at least five sentences, write a letter to next year's fourth graders about BizTown. Explain what BizTown is, give them advice, tell them what you liked best, what you learned, etc.

Dear fourth grader,
Your trip to Biz town will be very fun and tiring at the same
time. First there's a town meeting all about your job. Second, you do your job. You go on break. That's the best part of biz town. You get your paycheck deposit it and go shopping. At biz town there is a ikea, papa johns, UW medicine to get a check up... Biz town will be the funniest
Educational place a earth. For real. It's okay if you didn't get the job you wanted, it's still awesome. Now matter what job you get biz town shall be the number one place on earth.

To a future fourth grader,

BizTown is a great experience and you should make the best of it. A Job that is really awesome is the CEO/CFO of SuperGraphics. This job is a very awesome because not only you get to do the math and sighn all the checks (usual) you get to see and make the real IDs. Plus, SuperGraphics is located at the begging-center of BizTown so people can see it very well. In addition, SG is also has a variety of jobs. So, when some people are on break there are still tw or three people ther to assist. One thing I think is very important is how to maintain a register. when you go to JA biz town you relize how much you use them in real life. JA is a great way to learn about checks.

JA Biztown is a place where you get to experience what adults do daily. My job was the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of Super Graphics and I had to do a lot of math and used a computer often. What I like the best about Biztown was that I was able to experience what adults do every day. I learned what you do in a business and how hard it is to be a CFO. At Biztown you get to buy stuff for the day or you can buy stuff that you can keep.

When you are in fourth grade you get to go to JA Biztown. JA Biztown is a place where you kids get to be just like adults. You get to shop at stores, work at stores, Write checks, have your own bank account, and much more. You can buy snacks, stuffed animals, ID cards and other stuff. Remember not to sell your prices too low or you will make a loss. Biztown is a great way to learn. Have fun at biztown

Dear future fourt graders,

Next year in fourth grade you will go to Biztown. Biztown is a part of Social Studies and also a feild trip. Now lets talk about Biztown a litle bit more. In Biztown you will apply for a job that depends on what you like to do. Then your teacher will pick what job you get. Once you know your job you'll study for it. When you go you get to buy cool things,write checks,and work at your job. You will love Biztown. And I know because I went yesterday.Biztown totally rocks.

Dear future fourth graders,
Your trip to BizTown next year will be fun,tiring,and kind of scary at first but if you pay attention to the BizTown lessons you will have alot of fun! A job that I had and enjoyed a lot was SuperGraphics Desigher. I make ID cards! This is how you do the job.
First, you tell the customers to have a seat in the black chair behind a screen. Next, you ernter there account number and it brings up all there information. Then, you tell them to smile at the camera and click on "take picture."
Now, you uppload the picture on the bottom of the screen. After That, you print the picture out and cut it out then put it through the laminater then you have your self an ID card. It can get stressful at times but fun at others.
sincerly,
Maddie

I'm sure when go go to BizTown it will be great! At first it might be confusing but then its a lot of fun. There are also a lot of great items to buy during your break. You learn all the responsibilities grown-ups do to prepare you for the future. I know you'll love BizTown!

Dear next years fourth graders,
Next year you are going to a thing called biztown.It is so fun! Wait wait wait I dont even think you know what it is. It is where you go to auburn and be part of a buisness and ack like an adult. You get to have breaks like your parents and assinged times to work.
You have four weeks of prep. (oughhh).I hope you have fun!

Matthew N & Biztown`s friends said...

Dear Fourth Grader,
In Biztown, you get to have fun buying and selling items. I was the CFO in Tacoma Water Company and CFO`s create checks on the computer for your company. Our company earned a profit and so did 14 other companies. 3 companies didn`t earn a profit so they couldn`t pay back their bank loan. I recommend that you shouldn’t be a bank teller because at breaks, it`s extra busy when lots of people rush to the bank. I hope you have a great trip!
Sincerely,
Matthew N

Dear Fourth Grader,
There is a lot to know about the awesome little mini-town called BizTown. We deffinately loved the trip. It is very hard and confusing working at our jobs but all the work pays off when you get to shop during your breaks! It is awesome and i'm sure you'll love it!!! There is a town meeting when you start and the mayor of bizTown gets to give a speech along with CEO's! If you're wondering what CEO is it's a job. There is a CEO, CFO, Sales manager, or maybe a health manager.If you are a CFO, you get to deposit all the checks, write all the checks, give paychecks to the employees (including yourself), and lots more! If you are a CEO, you are like the boss. All the jobs are really fun and exciting(yet hard and confusing)but very cool! If you want to know more, you'll just have to wait untill the end of the year!!!!! Happy BizTown!

Dear fourth grader ,
you have to know your job will be hard but it's also fun. You must be ready for anything. YOU always have to remember to have good teamwork what ever happens.At breaks we get to go shopping and other cool things to do the places to go are UW medicine where you can get a check up ,IKEA , Nordstrom's,and Papa Johns where you can get snacks like popcorn and cookies.Sometimes you don't get the job you want but mabye the job will be even more fun than the one you planed on having! No matter what have FUN!

Biztown is very fun and tiring. You guys will learn how to make a loan for your business, use a check book, and run a business. You get two paychecks and two breaks. I worked as the CFO of Best Buy. It was a really really hard job. You have to print all the checks and work with the bank loan. I suggest that you guys be a CEO instead I learned that the hard way. Hope you guys have fun at JA Biztown.

Cade said...

Dear fourth grader,

Biz town is fun and easy. You get to run around like your an adult. Also, there are the times when you are super busy and cannot do the fun part. Finally, I would choose CEO or CFO. Keep an updated register.

Sincerely,
Cade

Liam said...

Dear Future Fourth Grader,
BizTown is the best field trip ever! I had so much fun in my job at Puget Sound Energy. I worked, and then I got to shop with the money I earned in my "job". The only downside is the long bus ride to get there. But once you're there, you'll have a blast!
Sincerely,
Liam

My favorite thing about fourth grade was Biztown. In biztown we had jobs of what adults had. I was the CF O of Tacoma water company. We earned a profit and 14 out of 17 businesses earned a profit. My favorite thing about biztown is was buying things that I like.
