KIRISH
This sociodrama activity helps learners discuss budgeting, spending priorities, saving strategies, and realistic financial decisions. Students practice comparing options, asking for advice, negotiating choices, and creating a practical financial plan when money is limited.
SSENARIY
A group of students is planning an academic event, but the budget is smaller than expected. As they begin organizing the event, prices rise and one important item becomes more expensive. Now the group must decide whether to cut costs, look for support, or change the original plan.
Each member has different priorities. Some want to protect the budget and avoid risk, while others want the event to remain high quality and attractive. The group must compare costs, discuss affordable options, and agree on a realistic financial decision before it is too late.
