THE FUND$ GAME STEP-BY-STEP

  • Run-time can be anywhere from a 3-week compressed version to a 5-week lengthier version.
  • For the 3-week compressed version, aim to complete the SET-UP and PREPARATION in the first two weeks, reserving the third week for GAME PLAY and POST-GAME WORK. This could be extended to five weeks by adding an extra week or two to the PREPARATION stage. 
  • The PRELIMINARIES and POSTLIMINARIES are specific to the Teacher script.
