Economic Systems & the Zombie Apocalypse Economy (Distance Learning!)
Infusing economics lessons with creativity, critical thinking, and straight up fun is one of my favorite things to do. Every year my students come alive as they imagine a scenario where the zombie apocalypse has finally happened, and out of this ruin they are tasked with building a new economy. I laugh walking around listening to my students figure out how to build infrastructure that will protect them from the zombies while figuring out how to not let their new cities run out of scarce resource

Students can be so creative, witty, and thoughtful when we give them the opportunity- and making political cartoons is a beautiful way to disguise some critical thinking.This lesson will teach your students all about free trade and t

Supply Meets Demand Economics Lesson (Distance Learning!)
I'm Mrs. P and I have a true passion for making Econ engaging.

Find Economics resources | TPT
If you’re an educator or parent looking for printable or digital resources to help your student learn about economics, TPT has got you covered. We’ve got a comprehensive collection of economics and financial literacy resources available, including activities and lessons on trade, goods and services, and the stock market to name just a few. With plenty of TPT high-quality resources at your fingertips, you’ll be able to teach economics to your students in no time at all.
Economics activities to try
Here are a few examples of the different types of activities and lessons you can find on TPT to help teach students about economics:
Simulation Activities
You can introduce students to the world of investing, budgeting, and other economics-related activities through simulations. For example, have students research companies they want to "invest" in to show them how the stock market works. If you want to extend the lesson, you can have them periodically check in on their portfolios throughout the year to see how their investments are performing. Or, you could use a simulation to teach them about causes that led up to certain major historical events, like the stock market crash of 1929.
Budgeting Exercises
Help students understand the importance of managing their own financial resources by challenging them to create a budget. Give them a few hypothetical scenarios involving income, expenses, and financial goals. For example, you could ask them to plan a fictional character's monthly expenses, or have them create a budget to save for buying a house.
Trade Games
Through trading games, students can learn about importing and exporting, along with the impact of external forces and trade agreements. Ask students to work in teams and have them trade goods, record their imports and exports, and respond to charges (like tariffs and embargoes).
Cost-Benefit Analysis
Give students a real-world decision to make (e.g., building a new road, investing in a new technology, or buying property) and have them perform a cost-benefit analysis. To deepen the learning, you can ask them to justify their decisions with evidence.
