Scarcity, Choices, & Opportunity Costs

Let's Get Started

Introduction

 

Hi Second Grade Economy Explorers! 

For this module, we’ll be learning about scarcity, choices, and opportunity costs. You've already learned a little bit about this topic during Reading. We’ll be discussing and learning more about the ways this concept (idea) affects 2nd graders. We’ll also review a little about the economics you learned in kindergarten and first grade. Let’s explore some other interesting information about why all of us - kids and grown-ups, need to learn about making good economic choices.

Today you will need to do the following steps in order to complete the assignment:

  1. Watch the video about making choices.
  2. Complete the interactive - "What Would You Buy"
