Learning Target: I can use data and information to explain how my choices determine who I will become.
The Scenario: You have the opportunity to raise your child in either Cape Elizabeth or Rumford.  Your family will earn $140,000.  One parent is a chemical engineer and the other a nurse.  This amount of yearly income would allow you to buy a house in either town up to but not over 350,000.  That will mean very different things in each community -- you will very comfortable in Rumford, and house poor and struggling in Cape.  Your child will have very different experiences in each.
