About these lesson plans
These 33 Form One Book Keeping lesson plans follow the competence-based planning format used with the new TIE curriculum. They build from the concept of book-keeping and the double-entry system to source documents, ledger posting, the trial balance, the income statement and the statement of financial position. Every lesson is 80 minutes and ends with a planned assessment.
