This resource book is intended for a one-semester model course for high school economics for eleventh- and twelfth-grade students. The seven units in the book are linked to content ordinarily found in microeconomic and macroeconomic courses. Each unit contains 5 to 11 lessons, an author's note to the teacher, an author's letter to the students, classroom instructional materials, and sample test items. Each self-contained lesson contains a summary of economic content, an economic reasoning summary, instructional objectives, procedures, and student materials. The seven units in the resource book are: (1) "Why Economics Is Important"; (2) "Supply and Demand"; (3) "Consumers and Producers"; (4) "The Role of Government in Economics"; (5) "Macroeconomics"; (6) "Macroeconomics: Forecasting Our Economic Future"; and (7) "International Economics Issues." The book concludes with a section on extending teaching activities. (EH)
