A differentiated oligopoly worksheet applied to the chocolate bar market. Get students to research the chocolate bar market before answering questions. Could be used as an in class worksheet or activity or as a homework project.

An activity that would be good as an end of topic review. The monopoly question inception has questions inside a question inside a question. All the PDF's are editable so can be uploaded into each other and create a professional looking document at the end. Students must answer the following question: To what extent do monopolies exploit consumers? And fill in the Monopoly Sheet. To do this they must categorise the following eight arguments into arguments for and arguments against the statement. They can then be uploaded into the Monopoly Sheet which is the main document. However, none of these arguments are complete and each need students to complete various tasks before they can be included into the main document. These include gap fills, word searches, true or false, definitions, explanations, interpreting pictures, evaluation, including key words etc. Once they are completed they must be saved as PDF's and uploaded into the main document (which is also saved as a PDF). When using this resource I didnt tell the students the titles of the PDF's but renamed them into 'argument 1, argument 2, argument 3 etc.' This prevents any clues being given away. At the end of the lesson students have effectively worked together to write an essay plan which can also be used for revision. I found this lesson to be very successful as it stretches and challenges more able students, but still has opportunities for weaker students to shine and encourages them to work together to consolidate their knowledge. Topics covered include: - Price Discrimination - Static Efficiency: Allocative Efficiency, Productive Efficiency and X Efficiency - Dynamic Efficiency - Business Objectives - Economies of Scale - Natural Monopoly - Output and Prices - Minimum Efficient Scale - Evaluation

An activity that stretches and challenges more capable students by getting them to apply their knowledge of demand and supply shifts and price elasticity of demand and supply. Ask them to read the attached article then answer the following questions: Read the BBC news article from March 2016 detailing Britain's biscuit shortage and answer the following questions: 1. How have the demand and supply curves for biscuits been affected? 2. Why haven't the price of biscuits increased rapidly? 3. What impacts might there be in related markets? 4. How has Asda's experience of the crisis been different? How might this affect their elasticity? 5. Do all biscuits have the same elasticities? Justify your answer using the information from the article

A fun game or starter that gets students to apply their knowledge of price elasticity of demand. Students are shown a good and given its elasticity. They are next shown another good and have to guess whether the next goods elasticity will be higher or lower. This sparks a discussion of whether a good is likely to be price elastic or inelastic and how elastic or inelastic it will be. This can be done either as a whole class activity or in two smaller groups as there are two sets of questions. For each set there are 10 goods which range in difficulty.
