Secondary learners explore the economic indicators and the role they play in the US economy. Written for the 2008 economy, the lesson is adaptable to today's economic situation. Pupils discover economic indicators, analyze charts, theorize on the state of the economy, and then compare their theories to economic experts' theories. Group discussion and activities are also a part of the experience.
