Unit Title: Brad’s Last Ride
Context
Subject: Integrated Social studies Major Content: Economics
Lesson Title: Brad’s Last Ride Cost Analysis
 Identify the unit topic and the unit objective(s) addressed by this lesson:
The introduction of ATVs on a farm is seen as a technological change that is used to increase productivity for the farm economy. Unsafe use of ATV technology on the farm can actually lead to a decrease in productivity, which will impact the community, state, and even the world. By investing in human capital, education and training on ATV safety, students will be able to understand the costs of
ATV accidents. Therefore, an investment in safety practices will have a positive, rather than a negative, impact on economic productivity.
 Describe the students’ prior knowledge or the focus of the previous lesson:
Students will have an understanding of basic economic vocabulary terms as they relate to ATV safety,
(i.e. opportunity cost, human capital, …)
Students will be familiarized with ATV’s and their dangers, as well as the economic impacts, through the previous night’s homework assignment and the previous days discussion and assignments
 Describe generally any critical student characteristics or attributes that will affect student learning:
Characteristics may include student’s living environment rural/suburban/urban, familiarity with ATV’s, and maturity.
Lesson Objective(s)
State what students will demonstrate as a result of this lesson. Objective(s) must be student-centered, observable and measurable.
1.
Students will know basic terminology in economics and how it applies to ATV use and injury.
2.
Students will know how to minimize the impact of ATV injuries through the use of helmets.
3.
Students will understand that ATV injuries directly relate to individual productivity.
4.
Students will understand the various costs of ATV injuries affect human capital/resources.
5.
Students will be able to quantify the opportunity cost of an ATV injury and how that has an impact on productivity in the world.
6.
Students will be able to demonstrate a causal relationship between safe and unsafe riding behaviors and the consequences for their outcomes.

Connections
Connect your goals and lesson objective(s) to appropriate Kentucky Core Content and/or Program of
Studies. Use no more than two or three connections, and if not obvious, explain how each objective is related to the Program of Studies and/or Core Content.

Students will describe and give examples of how factors such as technological change, investments in capital goods, and human capital/resources have increased productivity in the world.
The introduction of ATVs on a farm is seen as a technological change that is used to increase productivity for the farm economy. Unsafe use of ATV technology on the farm can actually lead to a decrease in productivity, which will impact the community, state, and even the world. By investing in human capital, education and training on ATV safety, students will be able to understand the costs of ATV accidents.
Therefore, an investment in safety practices will have a positive, rather than a negative, impact on economic productivity.
Assessment Plan
Using the tabular format below, describe how each lesson objective will be assessed formatively to determine student progress and modify instruction if needed. Describe any summative assessment to be used if it is a part of this lesson. Include copies of any assessment instruments and scoring criteria or rubrics if applicable to the lesson.

Resources, media and technology
List the specific materials and equipment needed for the lesson. Attach copies of printed materials to be used with the students.
If appropriate, list technology resources for the lesson including hardware, software and Internet URLs, and be sure to cite the sources used to develop this lesson. (If your committee thinks the technology observed in the lessons does not fairly represent your use of technology, provide additional documentation in your Component 1 exhibits. See Standard 6.)

Procedures
Describe the strategies and activities you will use to involve students and accomplish your objectives including how you will trigger prior knowledge and how you will adapt strategies to meet individual student needs and the diversity in your classroom.
1.
Students will view an image on the overhead showing an ATV accident. They will write down how it happened and provide examples of the costs that may have resulted in the accident. The teacher will return the vocabulary assignment completed during the last class meeting with comments while students are working.
2.
Next, the class will share their cost stories completed in step one.
3.
The teacher will reintroduce the concepts of cost analysis and relevant terms to the class while going over the homework.
4.
The class will go over the cost analysis tool using the spreadsheet on the overhead with the teacher. Students will be called on to provide answers. Discussion about these costs will occur during the completion of the spreadsheet.
5.
Next, the class will watch a short u tube video clip on ATV injury and prevention. Students will be required to answer some relevant questions on the video.
6.
The teacher will now introduce the summative assessment for this unit. There will be sufficient time to ask questions, and may begin working on their assignment individually.
