This standards-based program appeals to 
struggling readers in high school, ESL, and adult literacy classes. The 
low reading level; sophisticated page layout; and age-appropriate, 
up-to-date, visuals make Economics accessible to students with limited 
reading skills. 
STUDENT WORKBOOK The 80-page, full-color student 
workbook includes 7 easy-to-read chapters. Each features lists of 
vocabulary words; full-color photographs; and full-color visual aids, 
such as maps and charts. A Section Review exercise appears at the end of 
each section, and a Chapter Checkup at the end of each chapter gives 
students an opportunity to further review the chapter. Economics focuses 
on the U.S. free enterprise system. Students will read about the basics 
of the production and consumption of goods and services; supply and 
demand; types of businesses and market structures; the global economy, 
and the role of financial institutions. Also includes a chapter called, 
"How Economics Affects You."
 
TEACHER'S GUIDEThe 150-page, reproducible Teacher's 
Binder has 96 student worksheets that reinforce each section of the 
Student Workbook. Students master reading-comprehension skills while 
answering content-area recall questions; researching significant people, 
places, issues, and events; and expressing opinions through writing.
