Boom or Bust Worksheet

This worksheet considers the different stages of the business cycle.  It consists of three tasks.  Task one is a mix ‘n’ match activity that involves matching each stage of the business cycle to the correct definition.  Task two builds on this by providing a graphical visualisation of the business cycle, which needs to be labelled.  Finally, task three provides some real GDP data, which can be used to answer questions about the UK business cycle.

A link to the interactive online version of the first task is also provided.
