Good morning,
I have just been asked to prepare and teach and economics lesson based on
Treasure Island with a learning activity next week and am in a little panic
about it. The Social teacher would like me to teach the Triangle of trade,
but I think that would be more than a single lesson because the kids (7th
grade) have no background information. The Language Arts teacher is
interested in doing a lesson on the history of money. I have to have an
activity to go with it though that will go with the text. Aack!
Anyway, I have to be prepared to teach it next week sometime. Does anyone
have an idea for an activity that will use both the text and an economics
principle? I am leaning towards the Triangle of trade simply because I
think we could do a circle of trade and money activity…but I am open to
ideas.
Thanks for all the your ideas!
