Students identify and research various suitable school carnival activities. Then they work together to plan, design, and run all aspects of a school carnival. Students also add up their costs for the event and the amount of money it made, calculating how much profit their carnival generated. Finally, they create a newspaper about it and publish the paper so the whole school can read about it.
