Give Me Five - Business Economics
25th August 2011
Give Me 5 is a flexible lesson activity is all about quick thinking skills. Give Me 5 is designed to help you put your students on the spot! How much can they recall from a recent lesson or topic? Have they been doing some background reading or listening around their subject? Have they been keeping up with the news? Can they come up with a distinctive or creative answer which their classmates can’t spot?
The PowerPoint provided below is for you to edit as required. The template provides a 30 second countdown in which students are asked to come up with up to 5 different answers to the question / prompt. Edit the slides as required. The timing is coded to last 30 seconds (to match the cheesy music) - you can always edit this to shorten or lengthen the allowed time per topic.
I have included twelve questions loosely connected with a business economics theme but I am sure if you want to use the resource you can easily find different examples and sub-topics to add into the resource! If you have some questions that work really well please add a comment to the blog!
