Supply and Demand- Musical Chairs


Hey you know what's really a blast to teach? Supply and Demand.

Today I had students explore supply and demand by playing musical chairs.

First round: Students play musical chairs with excessive amounts of chairs. Funny enough, after awhile students (consumers) lose interest, and no longer demand what I (the producer) supplied, that of course being the chairs.

Second Round: Normal musical chairs. Although we did include a round in which we had a bunch of consumers and very few of the product (the chairs). Surprisingly chaos ensued.

We compared it to Iphone sales, Black Friday, and Pokemon Cards.
