This resource covers key exam knowledge questions for some of the key concepts covered on the GCSE Business 9-1 Edexcel course. The resource pack includes two large monopoly sets: one for theme 1 and one for theme 2 revision.
As students progress around the board they keep track of their finances on a cash flow statement.
The Monopoly template is the same size as a real Monopoly board. It includes two separate monopoly boards - one for Theme 1 & one for Theme 2. You simply print out A3 sheets which students can write on.
The game works as follows:
Students should be given a different colour pen to represent their property. They colour in properties they own. They’re bought by giving 100% answers to the questions on each square. A monopoly doubles the value of rent. The stations double, tripe & quadruple depending on numbers owned. Students should maintain their progress through the cash flow statement. No monopoly cash, chance or community chest cards required
unless you wish to use them.
This is one of the most effective ways of bribing students to do revision & track their cash flow!
Have fun!
