Template to design a CLIL didactic unit
Subject: Economy Teacher: Alejandro Barbero Barbero
Title of the Unit Supply and Demand Course / Level: 1º Bachillerato
1. Learning outcomes / Evaluation criteria | To define supply and demand analysis and explain its function. To explain how supply and demand are relationships between the price of a product and the quantity of the same product. To define and explain the difference between demand and quantity demanded and supply and quantity supplied. To define and explain the law of demand and law of supply. To define and explain the difference between a demand schedule and a demand curve. To draw and explain how a demand curve illustrates the law of demand. To list and explain things that cause a demand curve and a supply curve to shift to the right and to the left To define and explain the difference between normal goods and inferior goods. To define and explain the difference between substitutes and complementary goods. To illustrate and explain how a change in prices, tastes and preferences can increase or decreased the demand for a product. To draw and explain how a supply curve or demand curve illustrates the law of supply and demand. To explain the meaning of the Latin phrase "ceteris paribus." To define and explain the difference between an equilibrium price and a market price. To determine the equilibrium price and quantity with information about the market To determine the equilibrium price and quantity from a graph of a supply curve and a demand curve. |

| 7. Methodology |
Organization and class distribution / timing | The number of season will be six sessions. Our methodology should be active, guided and well structured. We would use a language adapted to the students level. Finally we will use visual contents in order to help with comprehension. Presentation http://www.educaplay.com/es/recursoseducativos/2221502/supply_and_demand.htm
Session 1 - Ask students for previous knowledge. - How many euros are you willing to pay for a smartphone. Discussion. - Discover the factors affecting demand. - How can we represent the demand curve? - Explain slide 1,2 and 3from the presentation (URL on resources) Session 2 - Ask students for previous knowledge. - How many euros are you willing to recibe for a smartphone. Discussion. - Discover the factors affecting supply - How can represent the supply curve? - Teacher explain slide 4 and 5 - Students must represent demand and supply curve in the different situation given on a market. Session 3 - Market equilibrium. Explain slide 6 - Some question about market (featuring Indiana Jones) http://www.educaplay.com/es/recursoseducativos/2221541/indiana_jones_and_economy.htm - Find out the equilibrium market using maths. Session 4 - Introduction with a short video: Obelix and Co
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFs5LKBhcK8
- Explain changes on market condition. (slide 7 and 8) - Excersice to distinguish between movements and shift. - Introduction of elasticity. How to interpret the result of it Session 5 - Final excersice about supply and demand to consolidate concepts. - Crossword to reinforce concepts. http://www.educaplay.com/es/recursoseducativos/2219793/supply_and_demand.htm - Interactive test of supply and demand - http://www.econweb.com/MacroWelcome/sandd/quiz/
Session 6 - Webquest "A trip through the Economy"
|
Resources / Materials
| We will use the following materials: notes of the teacher, Smart board, photocopies, bilingual dictionaries, web pages, libreoffice presentation, webquest, and some interactive resources made by the teacher or found on the web. All the resources as write down notes, presentation, interactive activities will be availaible in Scholarium platform as well. http://www.educaplay.com/es/recursoseducativos/2221502/supply_and_demand.htm http://www.educaplay.com/es/recursoseducativos/2221541/indiana_jones_and_economy.htm https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFs5LKBhcK8 http://www.educaplay.com/es/recursoseducativos/2219793/supply_and_demand.htm http://www.econweb.com/MacroWelcome/sandd/quiz/
|
Key Competences | Linguistic competence: acquisition of specific language and vocabulary. L1 and L2 will be combined. We will make the introduction in L1, and we consolidate with L2. Mathematical competence: We will use mathematical calculation to find out the equilibrium Price and quantity, and to calculate supply and demanda excess.
|
8. Evaluation (criteria and instruments) | Evaluation criteria: Check that the pupils can identify the factors that explain demand and supply Verify that they can identify a demand curve and a supply curve
Evaluate if the know how to calculate equilibrium of market
Assess if the pupils can recognize influence of factors in market equilibrium Check if they can comment, drawings and shifts
Evaluation instruments:
Observation
Review of the activities of the pupils (evaluating
comprehension and writing levels).
Use the blackboard by the pupils (to stimulate activity and
to detect posible mistakes).
Use of ICT (Information and communication technologies)
as the smartboard and laptops.
Written tests.

Some of the activities we will do in this unit, including the webquest "A trip through the Economy"
Scaffolding activities
Reception
- Make a glossary with new vocabulary of the concepts studied in this unit.
- Complete the definition. You can be helped with the write down and the power point: demand, supply, equilibrium, movements, shifts, income, inferior goods, substitute goods, complementary goods, "ceteris paribus", market, consumers, sellers, circular flow of income and market clearing level
- Watch the video on youtube about the supply and demand. Write down the words you don´t understand:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-yWKgZv9JY
Transformation
- Analyze the next information on the tableand decide where is the equilibrium market and whay. Explain what happens when the price is above the equilibrim and below the equilibrium (You must choose only one price above and one below). Finally, depict the graphic of both situation:
Price | Supply | Demand |
1 | 0 | 100 |
3 | 5 | 90 |
5 | 15 | 75 |
7 | 22 | 63 |
9 | 28 | 52 |
11 | 34 | 43 |
13 | 38 | 38 |
15 | 49 | 30 |
17 | 58 | 26 |
19 | 68 | 14 |
- If we know that one market is related with the next demand and supply – price function
Qd = 8250-325P Qs = 850+175P
a) Calculate the equilibrium or market clearing level.
b) Establish what happen if the price is 12 euros.
c) Establish what happen if the price is 16 euros.
d) Depict the section a and b
- Decide if these statemants are right or wrong and explain the reason.
a) If the clearing market price is 6, when the price is 8 there is a excess of supply
b) If a new company create a new apps for mobile phone that decrease the cost of making a call phone, decrease the demand of this mobile phone.
c) If Renault Clio´s price increase, then more Opel Corsa will be buy by the consumers.
d) If incomes of the consumers increase, it will increase the quantity of demands of all goods
e) If we are analizying coffee market and price of coffee increases, then it will be a demand curve shift
Production
- Make a power point using all the new concepts that you have learned in this unit.
- Watch this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFs5LKBhcK8
related with this book https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obelix_and_Co. After that make your own comic including at least these concepts: supply, demand, companies, income, price, equilibrium and excess supply and demand.
- We are going to find out one of the main author who inspire the running of market. To get this goal you have to make this webquest. http://phpwebquest.org/wq25/procesa_index_autor.php
(here is the content of the webquest)

Evaluation
You are going to show your findings to the rest of the class. Your teacher and classmates are going to evaluate your work. For this, use the following information:
Organization
There is no sequence of information. Impossible to follow
Jump around. Difficult to follow logical sequence that the audience can follow.
Logical, original and interesting sequence that the audience can follow.
Elocution
Student mumbles, pronounces terms incorrectly, and speaks too quietly for students in the back of class to hear.
Student's voice is low. Student pronounces terms incorrectly. Audience members have difficulty hearing presentation.
Student's voice is clear. Student pronounces most words correctly. Most audience members can hear presentation.
