The point of a Class Extension Mixin is that you can use to get both class methods and instance methods with a single include(). If you only have class methods, you can also use a simple extend() in the inclusor. For something as simple as your example, even that might be overkill. Unless you have a specific reason to decouple the year() method by putting it in a separate module, you might be better off just defining it as a class method of Financial: class EndPoint def start @start = "01/01/"+Time.now.strftime("%Y") end def finish @finish = "31/12/"+Time.now.strftime("%Y") end end module Financial def self.year EndPoint.new end end Financial.year.start # => "01/01/2010" Financial.year.finish # => "31/12/2010" Paolo Perrotta Metaprogramming Ruby (http://www.pragprog.com/titles/ppmetr)
