Grade 6 Advanced-Level Collection 

Think and Respond 

• How did the headings in this book help you understand the important concepts?

• Imagine that the following objects were presented to you: a bag full of groceries, a signed picture of your favorite singer, and a mysterious box labeled PRIVATE. Which object would have the greatest value to you? Why?

• How does the law of demand affect the price of an item like a 1952 Mickey Mantle baseball card?

• Compare the attitude a baseball fan in 1952 might have had toward the value of a Mickey Mantle baseball card with the attitude. A modern collector might have about that same card value. How are their attitudes alike? How are they different?

• What role do you think the invisible hand might have in your own life?
