A simple framework structure for student to follow which outlines the structure required for differing types of question. The resource can be adapted for other subjects too, the example here is used for AO1 - Knowledge; AO2 - Application; AO3 - Analysis and AO4 - Evaluation. The number of arguments may be developed for example for a 18 or 34 mark question - but the basic structure stays the same.

Four short video clips (between 3 and 14 seconds each) to illustrate different features of cash flow. The animated clips use the analogy of water in a bath to explain how cash flows into and out of a business. They could be embedded in a PowerPoint, or used as stand alone clips. They do not contain any sound.

Exactly what it says in the title - this is for the 'Building a Business' unit. In PPT format so that they can be tweaked or repurposed - the mindmap itself is an image however. If there are any errors let me know, they have been checked but you never know! Designed not to be fully comprehensive as I use them as a wall display - they could form the basis of a starting point for student notes.

GSCE Business Unit 1 (Edexcel) Number Crunching & Key Terms Lesson A little something that I have put together for my year 10's to improve their confidence with some of the finance concepts taught in the "Putting the Business Idea Into Practice" topic. The PowerPoint features an interactive 'Countdown' numbers game as a starter to get students used to crunching numbers in a business lesson. Calculators at your discretion - the plan is to build confidence!! The game is interactive; 1. Click on six numbers from the bottom to pick the numbers that can be +-*/'d - they will appear automatically. 2. Click on the black total box at the top for the target number to appear (you can tweek this). 3. Press the speaker to start the embedded music Countdown for 30's (the clock is NOT animated!) *** Please note that if the three digit target number does not display properly you may need to change the font used*** It then segways into key term bingo! The instructions are on the slide - you just read out random definitions for them to match with the terms. You may want a couple of prizes to give out! I then used the hand out for the rest of the lesson. It is designed to last 45m to an hour. You could certainly add to the tasks to make it longer, or skip some to make it shorter.

A paired activity for students, that uses a piece of stimulus material which lacks either AO2 application (Dave Appleby's answer) or AO3 analysis (Annalise L’Mited’s answer). Students review the answer and associated teacher notes to identify what is wrong with the answer, and to use this to rewrite it with the missing analyis / application with the aim of arriving at GAP/GAN. The stimulus material is based on a 40m Section B essay question. One argument is provided and after development can be used to develop counter points and ultimately a final conclusion.
