<p>A whole lesson based on a Co-operative ownership structure.<br />
Case study, link to Youtube video describing the history of a cooperative, and then questions to compare.</p>
<p>I begin each lesson with a ‘sticker starter’ /do now task as the learners are coming in and writing the date/AMCAN in their books. The sticker template is for 10x and can be customised depending on the topic covered. They are super quick and easy to create.</p>
<p>Mini case studies, which learners have to read and be able to define the ownership type. The table then asks them to identify benefits/drawbacks and additional examples.</p>
I've used this as a research task for a cover lesson. Gets them thinking, and creates some good discussion points. They can add what laws they would add to prevent such acts.
<p>A worksheet which I printed on A3 paper as a task for year 10/11 revision of the 4 p’s. I gave them a product which they then had to analyse. Includes the product life cycle, extension strategies and packaging. I then linked this to Pricing and promotion of their product in further lessons.</p>
<p>A resource that I have used with my year 11 business group in terms of revision and expanding their answers. I wrote the case study as I couldn’t find any suitable resources for the Unit 2 WJEC.</p>
<p>A quick task sheet which could form the basis of an organisational structures lesson. Gives an example of a heirarchical structure, with roles and a set of 5 questions.<br />
Good for cover, or to be jazzed up for a lesson.</p>
<p>A quick task, which I built a lesson around (based on revenue, costs and profit) - probably 15 mins.</p>
<p>Created good elements for discussion, and they could peer mark quite easily.</p>
<p>A short task to consolidate methods of motivating staff. Each employee has a short profile explaining why they feel unmotivated. The learmers then have to say how they would motivate each employee.</p>
<p>A quick worksheet to consolidate learning about:</p>
<ul>
<li>The Consumer Rights Act</li>
<li>The Food and Safety Act</li>
<li>Environmental legislation</li>
<li>Employment Law</li>
<li>Health and Safety at Work Act</li>
</ul>
<p>Good for a cover lesson if they have access to a PC.</p>
<p>I printed this in A3.</p>
<p>A short finance case study based on a small corner shop. A revenue starter, and then questions around finance. The last page includes a break even chart.</p>
A work sheet around the topic of business growth. <br />
Benefits of a small business<br />
Economies of scale <br />
Advantages/dis advantages <br />
How is the size of the business measured? <br />
<br />
<p>Very simple and straight forward cover lesson where learners have the opportunity to plan their perfect summer.</p>
<p>I used this for a very low ability group, however it could be adapted.</p>
<p>Note: The first task includes my local area - you would need to change it to suit you.</p>
