Instructional Ideas
  • As an extension, have kids come up with their own restaurants and short menus; they can identify the natural resources, human resources, and intermediate goods necessary for their imaginary restaurant
Classroom Considerations
  • You will need to purchase or borrow a copy of Little Nino's Pizzeria by Karen Barbour
  • While some of the economics vocabulary words are complex, the way in which learners are introduced to these terms is reasonable for the target age group; some pupils will still need additional assistance in understanding the terms
Pros
  • The lesson procedures are very detailed
  • Comes with a Venn diagram that includes a word bank to support students as they fill out the organizer
Cons
  • None
