In the classroom

Teaching tips & learning objectives

Learning objectives

Identify examples of goods and services from the passage's real-world examples
Determine the meaning of an unfamiliar word using context clues from the passage (RI.2.4)
Identify the author's main purpose for writing the informational text (RI.2.6)

Teaching tips

Use the graphic organizer (page 3) as a pre-writing step before the vocabulary and comprehension pages, noting that its eight outer spaces do not accommodate all nine systems without an added entry
Cut the exit-ticket page into four identical student copies; each has the same three questions
Use the second multiple-choice page's labeled standards (RI.2.4 through RI.2.8) to target a specific reading skill during small-group re-teaching

Skills covered

Reading comprehension for informational text — students answer multiple-choice questions tied to specific CCSS reading standards, from vocabulary-in-context (RI.2.4) to author's purpose (RI.2.6) to evidence support (RI.2.8).
Economic vocabulary — students define and apply nine terms for how goods and services are allocated (price system, majority rule, contests, force, sharing, lottery, authority, first-come-first-serve, personal characteristics).
Graphic organizing — students record allocation systems around a central organizer.

Good to know

Questions teachers ask about this resource

Do the two multiple-choice comprehension pages test the same skills?

No. The first set of five questions checks content recall, like identifying examples of goods and services; the second set of five is labeled with specific reading standards (RI.2.4 through RI.2.8) and targets skills like determining word meaning and identifying the author's purpose.

What are the four exit tickets used for?

Each 'Ticket out the Door' card asks three quick multiple-choice questions on goods and services, with four identical copies on one page for distribution to four students.
