Information for teachers
The Small Business Game is backed by NZTE and is designed as a learning tool for New Zealand secondary students. The game site includes curriculum linked teacher resources.
The Primary edition features a series of student quizzes that cover maths, spelling, punctuation and comprehension skills. As students progress through the game the quiz screen will prompt them to select a quiz. Success in the quizzes has a positive effect on their game scores providing an incentive to do well. Reporting analysis functions are provided so that teachers can evaluate student performance on the various curriculum topics.
Getting started
Students can self register using the link on the home page. A valid email address is required as a verification email will be sent within a few minutes to confirm the registration. Students will not be able to access the game until this confirmation process is complete. Students registered via this process will not be eligible for any prizes that may be offered from time to time and they will not appear in your Teacher Reporting Console. To gain full class access with reporting, both teachers and students need to be enrolled. Students are registered by their teacher using the Teacher Reporting Console.
1: Register your class (It's FREE!)
2: The Teacher Reporting Console
The Teacher Reporting Console provides teachers with data on student performance and is used to manage and monitor student information.
You will receive an email with access details for the Teacher Reporting Console. This also gives access to the Teacher Resources and to play the game.
Teachers use the Teacher Reporting Console to:
- Provide access for their own students
- Edit student details
- Monitor class and student activity
