Description
This Introduction to the New York Stock Markets Digital Activity is one of my student’s favorite lessons! Not only do they learn interesting history of the NYSE, they take a virtual field trip to New York City via Google Earth!
⚠️ NEVER underestimate the power of Google Earth to unlock students’ curiousity! ⚠️
⭐A great activity for an Entrepreneurship class or Introduction to Business (Business Essentials) class.
I try to educate my students on not only the stock market, but other interesting things that some educators may not think to include in discussing the stock market’s history. So much can be learned about the history of the stock market just by studying the pediment at the top of the building on Wall Street.
- Students learn about the NYSE Pediment and its significance to Wall Street.
- Students do a webquest to discover other stock markets.
- What is an OTC stock market?
- Students take a virtual tour of Wall Street and the Financial District in New York City.
❤️MY STUDENTS LOVE THIS ACTIVITY!
