WHAT ARE THE 5 STAGES OF AN ECONOMIC BUBBLE AND WHAT HAVE TULIPS GOT TO DO WITH IT?!

 

A Watch and Talk Method Guided video

Are you the teacher looking for the teachers’ notes? Log in here.

This interactive video focuses on the «five stages of an economic bubble» (yeah, I want to know which stage we’re in, too!).  Should we be panicking? Should we be putting our money under the mattress? Or just give it all to Elon Musk and hope for the best?! #toomanypeopletrustElon

 

As the title suggests, the video is broken down into 5 steps so that’s your goal – can you understand and then summarise them in your own words?

It’s a particularly good video if you want to boost your economic-related vocabulary substitute words like «increase» and «decrease» – perfect if you’re talking about graphs and, well, the economy. for example.

Watch the intro video to get focused. ➡
