This lesson is easy enough for 5th graders to understand yet works well with students up to grade 12. Modifications can be made as needed.

Understanding the Four Economic Industries + Community Service Project

This cooperative learning economics industry and factor of production lesson addresses the four economic industries: Primary, Secondary, Tertiary, and quaternary Industries. A nation's economy can be divided into various sectors. Understanding these is important in understanding how our nation's economy works. Your students will have fun learning a lot about these industries!

A community service project is incorporated into this lesson. Students bring in food items such as cereal, canned goods, or anything that can be donated to a community food pantry. Make arrangements with the local food pantry to drop off or pick up the items. The items will be used for the lesson.

Students will use higher-level thinking skills to demonstrate how a product can begin in a Primary Industry and end up in the Quaternary Industry, and how each industry can play a vital part in how products are made and distributed.

This lesson includes:

• Detailed teacher instructions
• A PowerPoint on the four economic industries
• Short reading assignment: "From Where Did Your Product Come?"
• Authentic learning experience using real food to understand the four

economic industries.

• Graphic organizer
• Incorporated community service project.
