Newspaper Lesson

I have just been to buy a selection of today’s newspapers to use with my L6th IB economists later this morning. With only a few weeks to go until the end of term I am keen to get them to complete first drafts of their first two pieces of coursework. The four economic commentaries need to cover three, but ideally four distinct areas of the syllabus. I will be getting them to complete a macro and a micro piece.

Remember that the commentaries must be based on articles from four distinct sources. I will be getting them,to read, discuss and cut out articles they think will be off use. Once they have chosen suitable articles they will be jotting the pieces of economic theory that will best help them in their analysis.

Later today I will update the blog with a selction of articles they have chosen.
