Since $5 is obviously nothing in the BJ world, what would be a good way to make money off of this $5? looking for something with a relativly low RoR, and it doesn't really have to gain much back... maybe a dollar in a month or so?

I was thinking something along the lines of buying $5 worth of a currency such as canadian, and hoping for an increase in value after the month. A drawback is that this increase in value would be mere pennies, since the original investment is only $5.

An example given by the teacher was someone who was a cook used the $5 to buy ingredients, and sold what he made with them..

Also are there stocks that have shares running in this low of an amount?

Let me know what you guys think.
Deposit $5 at Casino Lux (online casino). They offer a 600% match up to $30 (deposit $5, get a $30 bonus). Wagering is only 6xB. Read the strategy for this casino on my site. DO NOT PLAY IT LIKE A STICKY. With a conservative strategy ($1 BJ bets), there is a 96% chance of making a gain, and average gain of ~$29. The casino has instant cashouts, so you should get the money back in time for the class.

Next try Casino Glamour -- 500% up to $50 with 18xB wagering. You likely have >$75 now. It's with the same SW as Lux and also has instant cashouts.

Deposit at Yukon Gold. They refund 100% of your losses up to $50. There is no risk of a loss, and you may make a gain.

Hopefully, you are above $100 now. If not, try one of the $50 bonuses low wagering (like Sporting Odds). That will likely get you to >$100.

Next go to Golden Palace. 300% match up to $300 with 27xB wagering. This will likely get you to near $400.

$400 is enough to play almost all of the cashable bonuses. Keep playing with minimal risk strategy. If you have enough time, you should be able to make thousands of dollars from the $5.

You should have ~$35 now. Deposit at Yukon Gold. They refund 100% of your losses up to $50. There is no risk of a loss, and you may make a gain.

Hopefully, you are above $50 now. Try one of the $50 bonuses with 21xB wagering (like Sporting Odds). That will likely get you to ~$100.

Next go to Golden Palace. 300% match up to $300 with 27xB wagering. This should get you to about $370.

$370 is enough to play almost all of the cashable bonuses. Keep playing with minimal risk strategy. If you have enough time, you should be able to make thousands of dollars from the $5.
This would be a waste of good bonuses. I'm assuming these are one-time only deals so using these starting from 5 dollars would be wasting value, but still a good way to make a little money from 5 bucks.

The maximum deposit for the sign-up at Casino Lux is $5. The maximum deposit for the sign-up at Casino Glamour is $10. The maximum deposit at Yukon Gold and Sporting Odds is $50. The maximum deposit at Golden Palace is $100. All of the play mentioned above involves maximum deposits for the sign-up bonuses. (note that I added Casino Glamour as a 2nd thought at approximately the same time you posted)

You wouldn't be wasting money, but you would be wasting time. Some casinos can be slow to cashout. You could make more money faster, if you played at a different casino while waiting for the cashout from the first casino. Using very low bets to minimize risk of a loss also wastes time and reduces your hourly rate.

Maximum sign-up bonus of only 5 dollars?! Haha, I've never heard of that before...

Default the best seller

Buy a case of toilet paper - 96 rolls at a paper wholesaler and then sell them individually to people who have diarrhra or something . 96 rolls times $.25 = $24.00 so you make a clean profit of $19.00 or make that clear profit .
