I will be teaching 9th grade students an economic unit that covers the following standards and questions. Help me come up with a 9 week long unit where each of these standards are taught and students have authentic experiences scattered throughout. HS.E.MI.2 Analyze and graph the impact of supply and demand shifts on equilibrium price and quantities produced. HS.E.MI.3 Analyze the roles of product and factor markets. HS.E.MI.4 Compare the roles of consumers and producers in the product, labor and financial markets and the economy as a whole. HS.E.IC.1 Predict the way scarcity causes individuals, organizations and governments to evaluate tradeoffs, make choices and incur opportunity costs. HS.E.MA.1 Evaluate how values and beliefs like economic freedom, equity, full employment, price stability, security, efficiency and growth help to form different types of economic systems. HS.E.MA.4 Analyze the impact of fiscal policies, various government taxation and spending policies on the economy HS.E.MA.5 Assess how interest rates influence borrowing and investing. HS.E.MA.6 Assess the effectiveness of rules and laws that protect both consumers and producers. HS.E.ST.1 Draw conclusions regarding the effect of specialization and trade on production, distribution and consumption of goods and services for individuals, businesses and societies. HS.E.ST.2 Analyze the role of comparative advantage in international trade of goods and services. HS.E.ST.3 Explain how international economic trends and policies affect political, social and economic conditions in various nations. HS.E.IC.3 Perform a cost-benefit analysis on a real-world situation, using economic thinking to describe the marginal costs and benefits of a particular situation. HS.E.IC.4 Evaluate how incentives determine what is produced and distributed in a competitive market system. What are factors that determine price? What can impact demand and what can impact supply to change price? How does the wants/needs of consumers affect production from producers? How does scarcity force individuals to make choices? What types of economies are in the world? What are the defining characteristics of the different economy types? How can the government impact jobs/jobless rates? What is the role of the government with unemployment? What is the progressive tax system and how does it work in the U.S.? How can interest rates affect buying power in the economy? What laws are in place to protect consumers? What laws are in place to protect producers? Why do companies specialize in certain products? How do differences in economic systems affect the relationship with countries with other economic systems? What incentives exist in economics that affect the decision making process of consumers? When does cost outweigh the benefits in various situations? How does a free market economy encourage production? If possible- I would like to avoid a shark tank scenario or a personal budgeting task- other teachers do this and it is not going to be possible to do a cross curricular project at this time

This project will explore Japanese culinary culture as a reflection of tradition, identity, ritual, and modernization. Students will investigate four core areas of Japanese cuisine: sushi, ramen, street food/convenience store culture (konbini), and tea traditions. Through informational texts, multimedia sources, and class discussion, students will analyze how food represents regional identity, social values, historical influence, and globalization. Key topics to explore include: • The historical origins and cultural significance of sushi and ramen • Regional variations in Japanese cuisine • The role of precision, presentation, and aesthetics in food preparation • Konbini (convenience store) culture and modern urban life in Japan • The Japanese tea ceremony and its connection to Zen philosophy and ritual • The balance between tradition and innovation in contemporary Japanese restaurants • Cultural appreciation vs. cultural appropriation in global cuisine • How food reflects societal values such as discipline, harmony, efficiency, and community
