Bellwork Activity - Equation

Graham Prior

22nd October 2012

Equation is a great activity that can be used for bellwork, as a starter or as a plenary.

The concept is extremely simple. Students need to write an equation to demonstrate a specific business studies concept.

For example, an equation for partnerships could be:

More Ideas + Specialisation - Unlimited liability = Partnerships

Share in the profits

This activity works really well as it encourages students to pick out the key points from a topic. Other teaching and learning strategies for equation include:

  1. The teacher preparing a number of equations and asking students to solve them
  2. Replacing part of an equation with X and asking students to ‘find X’

Very simple but very effective…….
