Students apply economics vocabulary to everyday situations and match items to categories. Part A has nine fill-in-the-blank problems about low supply, saving coins, and a dentist providing a service. Part B is a matching activity connecting a winter coat, a video game, a haircut, and clean water to want, need, service, and need categories.

Classifying a mix of goods, services, wants, and needs in one matching activity sharpens students' ability to apply all four concepts quickly.
