Mrs. Sanders had her classes at Ackerman Elementary School study the history of Black Friday and the origin of the busiest shopping day of the year! Students then received the Walmart Black Friday Ad for 2022. They were each given $1,000 and used the text features in the ad to find the items they wanted for Christmas! They also had to pick out at least one item for a family member. #teamAES
