A quiz that can be used as a starter activity for form time or Business Studies showcasing women in business. The slide has statements describing a business woman without the title of the company (to not give it away!) with factual statements about their business accomplishments. The second slide has the answers on. This is a fun activity that my class really enjoyed. The girls were very motivated, while the boys saw business from a different perspective.

This year, to get students used to building a chain of analysis, I have been doing this as a washing line structure with pipe cleaners and washing up pegs. It has been working really well, so I have created a worksheet version of this for students to get used to and picture how to build a chain of analysis in a memorable way. Each part of the washing line has a component of BLT: Because, Leading to and Therefore, with a impact section to get the students to understand to include the impact on the business. Great for printing out and revision!

The dates have been left blank in order for you to input your own dates so this can be used year upon year. However, there is an activity in each box for you, which follow a generic pattern which can be used in any level of Business Studies subject.
