3. Short Range Learning Objectives/ Standards for Unit (LO 2.2) (APS 1&2)
2nd Grade Economics Unit:
The objectives for this unit were to understand goods and services and the importance of money in our
economy. I designed this unit to include direct, interactive, and independent instructions. The students are
taught through direct instruction and visual and kinesthetic learning: making $1.00 and H2Olympics. The
students are given many opportunities during this unit to be hands on but also to be taught directly by me,
with me asking students questions to determine their prerequisite knowledge. One of my goals for this
unit is to provide students will differentiated instruction, which will allow them opportunities to work on
their own, experiment, and have fun learning.
Unit Objectives, Standards, Strategies, Accommodations/ Adaptions,

and Assessments
Lesson 1: Goods and Services

services.
Instructional Strategy(s): Interactive instruction- students were cooperative learning
during each station.
Accommodations/ Adaptions:
Extended time
Definition of some of the cards will be given
Assessment: Students will watch a short video on goods and services. We will create an
anchor chart with the definition of each and some examples. There will be a card on each
desk and the students will rotate and have to determine if what is listed on the card is a
good or service. We will check their answers as a class.
Lesson 2: Lemonade For Sale Read-Aloud and Journal Write

Lesson Objective: Students will be able to identify key details in a text about goods and

facts and definitions to develop points, and provide a concluding statement or section.
Instructional Strategy(s): Indirect instruction- students will think and talk about what
they have heard in the story. Also I will use the strategy, independent study when they are
doing their journal entry.
Extended time
Prompt written on the Promethean board (color coded)
Larger lined paper
Assessment: I will read aloud to the class and we will have a reflective discussion during
different times in the story. Students will create a graphic organizer and then write a
journal entry with what they put into their graphic organizer.

Instructional Strategy(s): Interactive instruction- peer partner learning
Extended time
Written instructions for each group
Assessment: Students will make their predictions on a chart for each coin. They will then
conduct the experiment with each coin. As they are conducting the experiment they will
create a bar graph or line plot to show the results. They will then compare their
predictions and actual results in a math equation.
