What's in the worksheet
4 rounds, a sorting game with 4 items each - Trading and baking to order are self-employment; company employee and civil servant are employees - Sales money and service fees are income; ingredients and the shop's electricity are costs - Checking the source is safe; telling friends your password and giving out your address are risky - Stir-frying and frying use oil; steaming and boiling do not
How to use it in class
Use for review after lessons on jobs and income, 6-8 minutes, since the set spans several units. - Play in teams of 4; each team explains its reason for an item before the answer - For round 2, use the smoothie stall outside school as an example of money coming in and going out - If many miss round 1, ask "Does this person have a boss who pays a monthly salary?" - Play it linked to a class and the scores go into the class gradebook.
Common sticking points
- In round 1, putting baking to order under employee because of the word รับจ้าง (hired); explain that this person takes orders job by job with no regular employer - In round 2, putting the electricity bill under income because ค่า also appears in เงินค่าบริการ - In round 4, putting stir-frying under no oil because it uses less oil than frying
