Money Board Game

Money Board Game

(5)
This resource is a handout that enables students to create their own money board game. It is useful for revising personal finance in PSHE. In Business studies it can be used to revise Marketing and Competition. Students will need paper, colouring pencils, sellotape and scissors to make the game.
Theatre Posters

Theatre Posters

(3)
I made this for a performing arts enrichment for the students who did not want to be in the play. Students try to design a poster aimed directly at the audience by: 1. Having a standout image 2. Using the minimum amount of text 3. Being very clear about the audience & their motivation for seeing a play. I hope this PowerPoint saves you a bit of time trawling around for theatre posters and gives students some direction as to what is expected when making this kind of poster.
Body Language Signals

Body Language Signals

(2)
This exercise helps students to understand common body language signals that they could be using and if they are a good or bad signal to be giving.
Business Departments

Business Departments

(3)
This was made, because my A-level ICT students had no idea what business departments were and what they did. It is a simple sheet to make sure that students know the VERY basics.

Attitude Quiz - How happy are you?

(6)
This little quiz helps you to think about your attitude to life and how you deal with people. Very useful in a PSHE, Drama or business context to get students reflecting on their attitudes.
iPad on Fire (Demand And Supply)

iPad on Fire (Demand And Supply)

(11)
Students very much enjoy discussing topics in Economics that are relevant to then. This little cluster of resources enables teachers to discuss the recent launch of the Kindle Fire and how it affects demand and supply for the iPad. It includes a student made poster as well in Publisher and PDF Format. Do students think this is the correct interpretation or do thet think they could do it better? (This resource could also be used for ICT when discussing new technology.)
Terrible Example Survey

Terrible Example Survey

(6)
This survey shows how not to do it! A great lesson for students to see that even adults make very silly mistakes and a real confidence builder for them to note how they could do it better. This resource now includes a detailed lesson plan and Worksheet for making your own survey.
Using Keywords & Referencing

Using Keywords & Referencing

(0)
This little lesson was designed to encourage students to search using keywords and then reference information given. It also shows how keywords can be used to precis information. I hope it's useful.
Dealing with Complaints

Dealing with Complaints

(3)
This lesson shows students a very well written letter of complaint and then encourages them to roleplay how they would deal with such complaints. Originally made for BTEC Business this could also be used for writing letters of complaint in English or as a precursor to a scene in Drama.
Advertising Agencies

Advertising Agencies

(3)
This lesson focuses on the role of advertising agencies and what they can do for a company. In the original plan I gave students material to read, but you might prefer to allow them to do a Web-hunt to analyse the role of the agency.

(1)
