Ask the students how they would set up a lemonade stand.
Introduce vocabulary (market economy, profit, human resources, capital resources))
As a class, read pg. 78-83, stopping to ask questions as indicated in the margins of TE(pg. 79, 89,81,82, )
Students should take notes and record information on their Study Guide while we read;
they can continue working on their Study Guide when we finish reading.
Ask questions listed in the margins of the TE as an ongoing check for understanding.
(TE79 ) What natural resources are located in the East?
(TE79) How are the forest of the East used?
(TE 79) How are coal and stone used in the east?
(TE 79) Why is the Atlantic Ocean an important natural resource of the East?
(TE 80) What is a market economy? (TE80) How are natural recourses used in a market economy?
Discuss with your group-Critical Thinking? Encourage students to think about the
differences between a market economy and a command economy,
I know that in a command economy, the government decides how business will be
run, I also know that in a market economy, individuals make the decisions about their
businesses. It seems to me that a nation that has a market economy has greater
freedom than the one that has command economy. When people feel free to make
their own decisions they enjoy a greater level of independence.
CLOSURE: Discuss the five statements on Review/Assess (TE 83) Encourage students tobe involved in the lesson and to ask about the things they do not understand,
J. Assessment: What will you use to measure student understanding?
For homework the students will pick one resource from the East and write two
paragraphs about it to share in class.
Explain how you will know students understand the concepts from the lesson
Students will share their paragraphs at each group. Teacher will walk around silentlyand listen.
K. Reflection:1. Which part of the lesson do you think will be the easiest for you to teach?
I think the easiest part of the lesson to teach will be reading and discussing the
lesson.

2. Which part will be most challenging for you to teach?
The most challenging part will be to explain what natural resources are and how
they are important it is for us to protect them.3. How will you follow up or extend this lesson?
I think it would be fun to do a class business, Have the students plan, make things, sell
things and then use the money for something for the school.
4. What will you do for students who dont grasp the concepts?
For the students who are having a difficult time with the concepts I will work with them
in a small group at my back table and reteach by helping them complete their
assessments.
5. Which part of the lesson, if any, do you think might need to change?
I would like to see how the students work in their groups and maybe it will be time have
new teams.
6. When you were writing this lesson plan, what was the most difficult part?
Once again assessment is always the most challenging because I want to have some
types of East assessments so I can grade it and get their grades back to them.
