As your teacher I chose this topic because, it is very relevant to our everyday life. Everyday we use products and services. It is important that we know where these products come from and which sector of economy does it fall under. Some leaners will enter the business industry when they get older, they will manufacture some products. This lesson will help to gain a lot of information. The learners now know what kind of sector the business in their communities fall in.
I hope this lesson has really helped the leaners with deep thinking as it also prepares them for the future.
