What is the difference between the
economy of North Korea and the Nuer?
I can differentiate between a
traditional, command, market, and
mixed economy. SS-8-3.2.1
 Economic
decisions are
made by customs
 Tradition determines
what is produced
 Tribe owns the capital
• Anything that is used to
make goods and services
 Some
individual
freedom
 Ex. Tuareg, Nuer,
Samoans






Economic decisions are made by the government
Government determines what is produced
Government owns capital
No freedom of choice
No competition
Ex. Cuba, North Korea, former USSR
 Free
enterprise – people make economic
decisions
 Private individuals determine what is
produced
 People own the capital
 Competition for a profit
 Ex. USA, Germany
 Government
provides some wants
 Businesses provide wants
Write 2 things you know about each on the
post-its.
• Traditional
• Command
• Market
I can differentiate between a
traditional, command, market, and
mixed economy. SS-8-3.2.1
1. In your table groups categorize your lists
by types of economies.
2. Walk around to the other groups and check
your work.
 In
your groups, create a play-doh scene
illustrating a traditional, command, or
market economy.
Why is the US
considered a
mixed economy?
I can illustrate how goods and
services are produced, distributed,
and consumed. SS-8-3.4.1
 Want

 Good – physical product
• Ex?
 Service
else
• Ex?
– work performed by someone

What is the difference between goods
and services?
I can illustrate how goods and
services are produced, distributed,
and consumed. SS-8-3.4.1
1.
Land
• Natural resources
• Land, oil, gas, trees
2.
Labor
• Human resources
• mental and physical
3.
Capital
• Anything else is used to make
goods and services
• Buildings, tools, machines
 Determine
the land, labor, and capital
used to produce 2 of these services:
• Carwash
• Haircut
• TV repair
• Play
• Classroom lesson
 Create a product no
 Land – play-doh
 Labor – human resource
 Capital – tool
one has made before.
 Scissors, ruler, pencil
 Answer
these 3 questions as if you were
going to actually manufacture your product:

Who will produce it?
How will it be distributed?
Who will consume it?

I can explain how scarcity and opportunity
cost impact economic decisions for
producers and consumers. SS-8-3.1.1 & SS8-3.1.2
 Resources
are limited, wants are
unlimited
 What things are scarce?
• Why do NFL quarterbacks make more than
teachers?
• Why is a Ferrari worth more than a old car?
Create a scene in US History where there
was scarcity.
 How
does scarcity influence the choices
we make?
I can explain how scarcity and opportunity
cost impact economic decisions for
producers and consumers. SS-8-3.1.1 & SS8-3.1.2
 Happen
because of scarcity
 Purchase one good or service, but not
able to purchase another
 Opportunity cost is the next best thing
 Every decision has an opportunity cost
VS
 Build
the best
Christmas present
EVER!
 Class Store
• Chose 2 items you want:
 Identify the gift you want
 Identify the opportunity
cost.
 Why can’t you have both?
 Pick
up 1 can of play-doh.
• Boys make a food item.
• Girls make a clothing item.
 Would
you rather have more food or
more clothing?
 Producers have an opportunity cost too.
 The next best thing they could have
produced
Money is used to make saving,
borrowing, and investing easier. SS8-3.3.2
 Trade

 Good things about trading?
 Bad things about trading?
Describe the pro’s and con’s of bartering.

Cody and David own a bait and tackle
shop. They produce the best fishing lures
