Week of August 23-27
Welcome back everyone! This week's blog post will be a brief summary of each class, as well as what to expect from the semester.
Business Concepts 1
This class is considered a consumer education credit. Students will learn about real-life scenarios, such as finding a job, making smart buying decisions, filing taxes, using a checkbook, using credit cards, etc. The class is one semester in length and is a graduation requirement.
This week, we will be starting chapter 1. Usually, both sections of this class will be on the same schedule. Because of the heat schedule, one class is longer than the other and activities for each class may vary slightly these first two weeks. Study guides for the chapter will be passed out on Wednesday, with the first two sections being due Friday or Monday.
Business Concepts 2
This class is an elective worth 1/2 credit. It covers economic and small business issues. This week, we are covering chapter 2, over economic performance and tracking such data as unemployment, inflation, GDP, etc. We will be doing activities in class and study guides will be passed out on Thursday, to be due sometime next week.
Business Math
This is a math class covering practical math scenarios such as paychecks, taxes, interest rates, depreciation, etc. At the beginning of each chapter, students will complete a reading guide as chapter notes. Each day, we will cover a section of the chapter by covering concepts and working math problems. Students will be given homework from the textbook to work on each night. We started chapter 1 on Tuesday.
Business Law
This is an elective for junior and seniors worth 1/2 credit. The course covers the creation of law at various levels, different types of laws, and the creation of contracts. Students will do writing and critical thinking throughout the semester. On Wednesday, students read an actual U.S. Supreme Court case and are working on creating a brief (summary) of the case.
That should be it for this week. Grades will be posted at the end of next week.
