From scarcity and supply and demand to entrepreneurship and the stock market, here you'll find a multiple-choice assessment that includes 34 questions covering all the major concepts of a traditional economics course. 

Teach your class some fairly complex terms—factors of production, human resources, capital resources, natural resources, and intermediate goods—with a storybook (Messy Bessey's Holidays), plenty of visuals and handouts, and related...

A problem set explores how an international crisis could affect the economic health of Canada using authentic materials from College Board. Other questions ask learners to create and evaluate supply and demand curves and examine factors...

How can we accurately estimate what the economy should produce now and in the future? Have your pupils tackle this question as they learn about real versus potential GDP and as they review data regarding the output gap in...

What does it mean to factor the difference of two squares? The interactive presents an area model of the difference of two squares. Pupils rearrange the model to create a rectangular area. The learners determine the length and width...

Imports often affect the production of domestic goods. Scholars consider the variables in this situation with a scaffolded prompt from College Board. Other items examine factors in production and compare the production advantage between...

Some lessons feature videos, some interactive practice problems, and some have notes and activities. This comprehensive look at factoring and solving polynomial equations using the zero product principle has all of this and more. Though...

Give the class a prime example of using prime numbers. After reviewing prime factorization of numbers with the video, pupils use their knowledge to determine greatest common factors and least common multiples in the worksheet. The...

Unlock the keys to fluent multiplication with this upper-elementary math lesson. After an introduction to the five properties of multiplication, students match cards with different math problems to posters describing each...

Discover another way to interpret multiplication. Using an interactive, learners slide points (representing the factors of multiplication) along the x-axis of the graph of y = x^2 and observe changes in the line segment connecting the...

The European Union has had a profound effect on world economic dynamics. A structured inquiry investigates its impacts on global interest rates. Other authentic testing materials from College Board explore banking reserve requirements...

In this math worksheet, 3rd graders focus on determining missing factors. Students complete 34 problems representing factors of whole numbers.

Where do directors and set designers get their ideas so that the set they build creates the mood and atmosphere the director wants for a production? From the script! Introduce theater high schoolers to the script analysis techniques used...

The debate of cupcake versus donuts may seem like a superficial one. However, learners consider whether it makes sense to specialize in producing only one confectionery in a scaffolded problem involving complicated economic concepts....

Graphing all kinds of situations in one and two variables is the focus of this detailed unit of daily lessons, teaching notes, and assessments. Learners start with piece-wise functions and work their way through setting up and solving...

What happens when stock market prices fall and many investors sell off their holdings? Scholars explain the effects as they answer the question from the AP® exam. The resource provides other authentic College Board questions that include...

Class members come up with a hypothesis on the number of decimal digits in the product of two decimals. Learners work in groups to complete several decimal multiplication problems. The results help groups develop a conjecture on the...

Can you follow a composition of transformations, or better yet construct them? Young mathematicians analyze the composition of dilations, examining both the scale factor and centers of dilations. They discover relationships for both...

What does your class know about GMOs? Are they savvy to selective breeding? Challenge young minds to engineer the greatest crop of all time using a hands-on genetics unit. Learners discover the good and bad details of selective breeding,...

Provide two views of multiplication. The introduction to an area model application has two modes. One mode shows the area of simple multiplication up to 12 by 12. The second mode shows how area models can be partitioned leading to the...

Area works with decimals too. Pupils use the interactive to model multiplication of two decimals using an area model. They see how the decomposed components of the factors obtain partial products and then the complete product. Using area...

Clean up the environment with a lesson that focuses on replacing hazardous cleaning supplies with green, environmentally-friendly products. Using a dirty patch of surface as a control area, kids clean other parts of various surfaces...
