This lesson plan aims to teach 8th grade students about the concept of scarcity. Students will be split into groups and given scenarios to analyze the causes of scarcity and propose distribution paths to address it. The teacher will begin with an introduction of the lesson goals and a review of prior economic concepts. Students will then engage with materials through a teacher presentation and group work analyzing case studies. Groups will discuss their solutions and present to the class. At the end, the teacher will review the key topics and have students summarize what they learned about scarcity.
