Needs and Wants Auction

This resource works perfectly as a stand alone activity or as part of a wider range of activities surrounding the impact of disasters.  This auction is designed to challenge students to really identify the difference between needs and wants.

Every auction is different! The winners and losers vary each time.  Be prepared for this to generate a lot of debate.  The auction will highlight key issues around fairness and justice. This is a great way to develop team building skills within your class and is suitable for any age from Year 7 upwards.

"Pupils really engage with the auction and are shocked when they discover that some groups have more money than others"

Assistant Chaplain, Ashville College
