Instruction should be based on content / skills from the Volusia County Schools Curriculum Map. The course curriculum map should serve as the instructional guide, not a
textbook or other resource.
Use the unit Organizing Principle as your starting point: have it posted, and review it regularly with your students to provide them with a framework for instruction
(remember, its like a thesis in an essay) and a purpose for learning all the unit content. The same holds true for the Curriculum Standards you are focusing on each day.
They should be visible and discussed before and after instruction.
Social Studies Literacy Strategies should be utilized regularly (Cornell Notes or similar note-taking method, SOAPStone or APPARTS analysis tools, and PERSIA or GSPRITE categorization tools).
Activities should include Document-Based instruction (analytical reading and writing involving individual and collections of primary and secondary sources), methodology
affecting the multiple intelligences and utilizing both individual and cooperative learning (e.g. Geography/History Alive lessons and The DBQ Project Lessons).
Students should conduct research projects related to the Social Studies Fair.
Assessment should include both formative assessments and summative assessments. Questions should include Level 1 items that involve low order, foundational
knowledge/skills; Level 2 items require students to infer or draw conclusions; and Level 3 questions require more abstract thought, thinking beyond the information at hand.
Writing for Understanding is not only the name of a TCI strategy but is an essential element in the learning process. Students should be engaged in higher order writing on a
regular basis, short and extended responses, more in-depth essays, and authentic writing. Students must be able to produce historical writing, that is, they must be able to take
a position on a subject (thesis) and defend it with examples (facts) and sound reasoning (logic).
Students should keep a Notebook as they help students organize information (previews, teacher directed activities, and process assignments), they provide cohesion and
structure to a unit of study, and they place responsibility for learning on students (e.g. an AVID or Interactive Student Notebook).
Teachers should assign, and students should complete targeted homework - students should be expected to complete homework regularly but homework shouldnt be
assigned simply for the sake of giving homework. Homework can include preview or process activities, vocabulary/concept building, work related to projects, etc.
o Previews involve activating prior knowledge, preparing students for the next topic of instruction.
o Process activities relate to content/skills recently learned where students are involved in metacognition.

Students will identify with demand rather easily, but sometimes struggle with supply.
Save the math on elasticity for honors level students if you do it at all. The concepts behind elasticity and total revenue are
more important in understanding price determination.
Marginal analysis is about how businesses decide how much to produce and how much to charge. Make this a step by step
process as you go through examples and tables from fixed, variable, and total costs.
On marginal analysis, emphasize the profit-maximization rule, that is, profit is maximized where marginal revenue equals
marginal cost. Oftentimes, you will see tables that will list the same amount of profit for two different levels of production
(e.g., for 8 workers, marginal cost = $12 and marginal revenue = $20, with a profit of $807; for 9 workers, marginal cost = $20
and marginal revenue = $20, with a profit of $807). The reason why profit is maximized where MC = MR is because the fixed
costs are now spread out over a larger amount of revenue gained. When that happens, total cost per unit goes down and profits
go up. Teachers will return to this idea when they teach economies of scale with monopolies.

Katrina and Personal Finance is a free DVD provided by the Federal Reserve and shows students affected by Katrina and how
their personal financial habits changed since Katrina. It emphasizes more than just financial responsibility in terms of fiscal
health; rather, it gives students an understanding of why financial responsibility is a good idea so that when the worst happens,
they can be prepared. Free lesson plans and DVD available from the link above.
Florida Council on Economic Education is based out of the Stavros Center for Economic Education at University of South
Florida. It is an amazing resource and is the only economic education center in the country aimed at providing materials for
elementary and secondary education, rather than adult or college education. They sponsor the Stock Market Challenge, and
offer a variety of publications. One of the free publications they offer is Financial Freedom, a small workbook that students
can use through the semester to learn how to buy a house, dealing with student loans, and more.
Council for Economic Education is another great resource to use, although their resources are not free. One product that they
do sell is Virtual Economics, which is an electronic copy of all of their publications. It is $99.95 for the CD-ROM/USB drive,
but it is worth the materials you get in return.
