Project Summary
Project Summary
5th graders read accounts of students who became successful at creating and running a business. They were inspired by various videos and articles about kids who became business owners. We brainstormed our passions and thought about how we can turn those passions into products or services. Through this work, they began writing their own business plan, creating their businesses while developing critical thinking skills authentically.
