Stock Exchange Lesson Plans for KS4
Students may have heard about the stock market on the news, but how many know how it works? In this series of 6 enterprise lessons, students develop a business concept and then learn about buying and selling their own shares.
Lesson 1 – Choosing Roles & Designing Logos
In the first lesson in this module, students work in groups to represent a company. They must choose their role in the business and then as a team decide on a company logo and what the company does.
Lesson 2 – Creating Publicity Material
Students must now consider how they are going to publicise their company using tag lines, adverts, posters etc.
Lesson 3 – The TV Show
This lesson takes the form of a chat show where each group must represent their company and answer questions from the audience.
Lesson 4 – Launching on the Stock Exchange
Students now present their companies to the rest of the class who represent the stock exchange. Each company is assessed by the rest of the class to give it a share price.
Lesson 5 – Buying and Selling Shares
All students now participate to experience how share prices change. Using a quiz style exercise, students can assess how different situations can affect share prices.
Lesson 6 – Final Session
