Session #4 Bonus Material

Project: Financial Analysis for Janella: (15 minutes)

Have students physically split into ~5 groups (dependent on cohort size).

You can let them choose their groups. Pay close attention to students who may need help finding a group to be a part of and help make introductions to students who may not know each other well.

Once students are in their groups, read together the instructions under “Financial Planning for Janella…You have been hired!”

Once instructions have been read aloud and discussed, set a timer for 13 minutes. Let students know once there are 10 minutes remaining, 5 minutes remaining and 1 minute remaining in group project time.

As students are beginning to organize how they will begin their research, walk around the room and listen in on different groups. For groups that need additional help getting started, you may choose to join that group to help them think through the different components of the case study and how to begin their research.

Students may use… • Google or Search Engine • Yahoo! Finance

• Company websites • News articles

• The data and articles that students have in the back of their

workbooks

At the end of time, have students move desks/chairs back to their original place and return to their seats.
