Key Notes on Differentiation
ContentProvide a partially completed example, labelled materials or vocabulary support for learners who need scaffolding in Costing and pricing simple products. Extend the task by adding a new constraint, less familiar case or requirement to compare alternatives in Costing and pricing simple products.
ProcessUse mixed-ability pairs for the first application, then require an individual transfer task. Allow oral/visual demonstration where appropriate while retaining the same subject accuracy criteria.
ProductUse a checklist/rubric tied to the concrete output for this week rather than participation alone. For advanced work, require justification with evidence, calculations, source reference or quality criteria.
Success CriteriaThe learner uses correct subject terminology and evidence. The learner completes the week’s concrete product/calculation/performance with acceptable accuracy. The learner explains why the procedure/choice fits the stated context rather than giving a memorised general answer.
HomeworkApply Costing and pricing simple products to a home/community situation using a small data table, photo, receipt, timetable or observation record; submit the evidence and recommendation.
Lesson Activities
StageTeacher ActivityLearner ActivityAssessment / DoK
Starter10 minutesPresent a household/family scenario with limited time, money or other resources connected to Costing and pricing simple products; ask learners to make an initial choice and state the trade-off.Inspect the prompt/materials, record an initial response about Costing and pricing simple products, and justify it briefly.Not provided.
Activity 115 minutesUse the scenario and concrete household records/materials to model the management principle or skill required for Costing and pricing simple products.Use a three-person user-needs card to convert a household/community problem into measurable product/service requirements.Check whether the learner identifies the real constraint/resource rather than giving a general answer.
Activity 220 minutesLearners apply Costing and pricing simple products to a different family/community case and create a usable plan, product, budget, dialogue or consumer decision.Sketch or make a low-cost prototype, then test it against function, safety, cost, appearance and user-feedback criteria.Assess practicality, inclusiveness, calculations/evidence and fit to the family goal.
Activity 310 minutesEach learner completes a short individual decision task about Costing and pricing simple products using stated criteria.Prepare a simple cost/price/label or sales pitch for the product and revise it after peer customer feedback.Check that the individual choice follows the stated criteria and acknowledges a trade-off.
