Finish.. • Make sure each area has all terms defined (correctly-check with me) on the flashcards.
Then.. • Work with your partner to make sure you understand all of the terms. You may want to write down the terms and definitions from your area on a piece of paper
Then..(part 2) • Take your knowledge of the terms from your area (1-5) and form a “super group” that has all 5 areas represented. • Its ok if there’s overlap..
Then..(part 3) • Using your “supergroup” get started on your homework. There will be a quiz tomorrow on which you may use your homework.
Homework (25 Points) • Write out a definition for all of the financial terms in all areas. • There are a total of 26 terms.
What can you do with your money? • You can invest it. This is a way to save money and get a better return than just putting it in a savings account. (do you understand how this works?) • To do this you need to understand some terms..
To do • Get Activity 1 “Terms from the World of Finance” • Break into 5 Groups • Each group has one area of terms (see next) • in your group, every person should make a set of flashcards (get markers and cards from me) for the terms for your area. • Put the term on one side and the definition on the other 4. When you are done with your cards review the terms in your group-quiz each other 5. Exchange your cards with another group and review the terms. 6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 until you have reviewed all 5 term areas.
