Brain Busters lesson plans
for Years 7-10 students
In partnership with TV2’s Brain Busters quiz show, we have created five lesson plans for teachers and supporting student activities.
These lesson plans will:
- build students understanding of needs vs wants
- teach them how to plan and budget for an event
- learn how to organise and host their own class Brain Busters quiz show.
