How Do You Create A Business Lesson Plan For Special Education Students?
Creating business lesson plans is increasingly important in the 21st century. All students need to be prepared for, and aware of, basic business practices. Teaching these skills to all students will help us create healthier economy. Build on what they already know. While this is important for all students, it is especially important for special-education students. Review topics that they have already learned about. Discuss what “business” means to them. Go over facts you expect they will need to know for the lesson. Break it down. If you are teaching a process or formula, break it into the smallest steps possible. If you are teaching a concept, start with the smallest idea and grow slowly. Use the real world. Link your lesson to the students’ experiences. For example: visit a local business that pertains to your lesson, set up a class store, and read and discuss economic stories in the paper. Give concrete examples. Act out the formula or concept and/or find examples of it in real life
