125 Activities and Assignments for High School Economics

• This product includes my best-selling economics products in one bundle. Included in this product are 30 writing prompts, 30 creative classroom activities, 52 texting assignments (with texting template) and 13 stand and sort activities. These activities encourage students to demonstrate their knowledge of economic concepts in various ways. The writing prompt slides and creative activity slides are editable!

• At $0.12 each, you’d be hard-pressed to find a better deal on this many economics activities! This bundle saves you 17% more than if you bought each of these products separately!

• All of these activities, with the exception of the “stand and sort” activities can be used as an in-class assignment or homework. (Stand and sort activities are group activities that must be completed in class.)

• All activities can be used independently of each other.

• Many of these assignments can be modified from an assignment for a single student to one involving pairs or groups.

These activities can be used:

• As a way to reinforce content taught during a lesson

• As a review after teaching a lesson

• As a starting activity to help students access their prior knowledge

• As extra practice for a student who is having trouble with a certain concept
