FEEDBACK
Kathy Dawson (TpT Seller)
Thanks. This is an idea that just popped into my head, and I use it to explain or reinforce the thought process for productive thinking. It works with adults too. It was fun creating it as well.

My students will have to analyze what they have learned in order to write about economics in poetry. I can't wait to read the products the students will create from this activity!

I teach 5th grade economics in GA. Will this unit help me?

This unit will help engage students in learning economics as they will have gained an understanding of economics in order to create a Seussical poem that denotes their understanding of the subject. It's a great way to access their learning.
