Work Readiness

Business Management

Students begin to understand the basics of deposits, checks, and withdrawals, and they build on that knowledge to understand electronic banking and bank cards.

Students are introduced to the concept of the circular flow of money and goods in an economy. They will define basic economic concepts and discuss the impact of taxes and philanthropy.

Students learn how their interests and skills can lead to exciting jobs and careers.

This unit gives students time to work in their business teams and prepare for their JA BizTown visit. They will learn about operating a successful business, setting prices to achieve a profit, and using advertising to bring in revenue.

​

​

An interactive (and fun!) program that leads up to a culminating day-long field trip to the simulated mini-city of JA BizTown in Edison, NJ.
