In the News Teaching Activities and our Weekly Economics News Quiz
15th September 2023
Each week we are producing ready-to-use In the News Teaching Activities and our popular Economics News quiz which can be played in various formats including Kahoot.
Here are two links where you will always be able to find these resources as and when they become available.
In The News (Teaching Activities)
Each week in term time, we'll be aiming to publish a couple of free In The News activities, providing students with focused questions on real world current events along with some brief suggested answers. These will be perfect for building vital contextual awareness linked with specification content.
Economics Weekly Quiz
In this collection you'll find our weekly Economics in the News quizzes. We scour the news outlets to find some interesting stories and issues - great for using at the end or the start of a week to see if students have been following the breaking business and economics news!
