GCSE Business (Edexcel) Unit 1 Mindmaps

(4)
Exactly what it says in the title! 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.

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.

jjd.turnerjjd.turner

GCSE Business Revision Game (Edexcel 5BS01)

(5)
A PowerPoint based quiz. Click on the number to select a random question (based on past papers) - once finished, click on the man and you come back to the number board to go again (the already chosen numbers fade out). Simple. You can use this as one at a time "pick a number challenge"; "teams challenge" etc... All slides can be edited to change the questions - you can add what ever you like; as long as the number board and man are not deleted you can put what ever you like on the slides. Perhaps make the colours relevant to more and less able students, or for different sub modules within the course. The options are boundless. Feel free to use and modify as you see fit.

A simple little Break-Even calculator

A simple little Break-Even calculator

(0)
Exactly as the title says. This simple Excel spreadsheet allows a student to plug in some fixed costs, variable costs and a selling price to see what the breakeven level of output would be. Use it as a demonstration to show what happens in real time if costs / revenues change, or as a tool to support students in analysing break even where performing the calcualations is not necessary. The first tab is an example (as seen in the image) with explanations/instructions that teachers/students can refer to. The second tab is a fill-in sheet to build your own! Oh, the example tab (as per the image) is locked to try to stop students accidentally breaking it - but there is no password!
GCSE Business Exam Skills Lessons

GCSE Business Exam Skills Lessons

(0)
Resources to help deliver the principles of 'Knowledge, Application, Analysis and Evaluation' at GCSE Business Studies. The resources are designed to be fun and engaging, and meet a range of learning styles. Student notes to accompany each presentation with space for activities to be recorded are included. Although this resource supports Edexcel 5BS03, I deliver it in year 10 to be able to get my classes writing effectively early. As such you may want to tweak the subject of questions to suit. Each resource can be edited fully to meet a groups needs, and I have included notes at the foot of each resource to explain how they are intended to be used, including how to run the range of activities each is reinforced with. I would recommend reading the notes at the bottom of each slide beforehand to know when sugar paper, scissors glue and cut-ups need to be pre-prepared! The two presentations (33 slides) cover approximately three hours of learning; I delivered the assessment objectives PowerPoint over two one hour lessons. The model answer provided is based on a case study in the 'Unit 1: Introduction to Business' book - ISBN 978-1-8469-0496-7.
AS/A2 Business Writing Frame
jjd.turnerjjd.turner

AS/A2 Business Writing Frame

(0)
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.

Cash Flow Illustration Video Clips

(0)
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.
Social Science A Level Subject Knowledge Audits

Social Science A Level Subject Knowledge Audits

(0)
A set of five teacher "Subject Knowledge Audits" for the A level (Sept 2015 onwards) 'Social Science' subjects; Business (AQA 7132) Computer Science (OCR H446) Economics (AQA 7136) Psychology (AQA 7182) Sociology (AQA 7192) These have been produced to allow a RAG+ rating of all aspects of the A level curriculum coverage of each specification in a self-calculating spread sheet optimised for printing if required. A rating is entered as a number 1,2,3,4, or 5 against each element. The 'Analysis' tab compiles all of the information onto one page to allow; an overview of CPD need; identification of delivery responsibility and inform subject priority. The RAG+ rating (which can be edited) defines as: 5 (Purple) I have expertise in this topic; I would be confident to provide CPD in this area; I know how to deliver this content to allow students to confidently access full marks in exams. 4 (Blue) I have very secure subject knowledge in this area; I know how this topic area will be assessed in exams 3 (Green) I understand the key features of this topic, but would need to spend some time brushing up on aspects before delivering it; I would welcome chance to discuss this topic in the department to clarify some points; I have not taught this topic before, and may not be able to answer some student questions. 2 (Amber) I have an outline understanding of the topic but would need support to feel confident enough to teach it; I would feel uncomfortable if students asked stretching questions in this area. 1 (Red) I am unfamiliar with this topic, and would not be able to deliver it without significant preparation which may include internal/external support. Teachers can add comments against each section when a RAG+ rating does not allow a representative picture. The two images in the files section will give you a preview of a completed audit for Business.

GCSE Business: getting confident with finance terms lesson activities

(0)
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.
