Understanding Goods and Services

Miss Colson introduces the concept of goods and services, explaining their impact on the economy. Students are instructed to watch a Brain Pop Jr. video and take a quiz. The video reviews the definition of goods as tangible items people want or need, providing examples like soccer balls and cars. Services are defined as actions provided by others, with examples such as teachers and nurses. Students are tasked with listing goods they desire and justifying their choices. The video concludes with a recommendation to explore more on Pebble Go.
