These could be cut out and students have to sort them out into the correct categories, or move them around and get students to order them into the correct column.
Could be used as either starter, plenary, or incorporated before a main activity.
This worksheet focuses on part-time workers (the advantages and disadvantages) and gives a scenario on why the use of part-time workers would be applicable to test students understanding of the topic.
This could be used as a starter or a plenary for students to describe the difference between a need, want, scarcity, the economic problem and factors of production.
Students could either stick the table in their books and number the right answers, or individually pair the right answers.
Enjoy!
There are 50 slides in this PP, alongside a range of starters/plenaries for each sub topic within the unit. There are also a range of questions that could be used for different activities and stretching students thought.
This homework contains three sections, students need to answer one question from every aisle. I would recommend stapling lined paper to the back for students to answer the questions, or getting them to complete them in their books. This would allow for other questions to be completed/and or discussed in class time.
This resource pack includes:
PPT
Starter
Main activity
Plenary
There is also a range of discussion points to aid learning, alongside explanations in the ‘notes’ section highlighting how different activities could be used/and or presented.
I would recommend using a timer for each of the activities to give a bit of pace to the lesson and add a competition element.
Hope they are of use, enjoy!
