Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Students

I have roughly 125 seniors in Reno, NV. Currently the school is a Title I school where many of the families have a high school diploma or less education and work in the service industry. There is a large percentage of these students who are ELLs and will be the first in the family to attend college.

These students are enrolled in my Algebra 3 class which is a math class for senior who struggle in math.

The class focuses on basic Algebra 1 and Algebra 2 skills along with many basic life-skills math such as purchasing a car, budgeting, medical math, etc. As a way to engage and share life-skills math in a new way, this project will help them design, plan, create and sell t-shirt like as if they were a small business. The projects will have a Shark Tank business pitch and the winning teams will get to carry their business plan and make/sell them as a fundraiser.

My Project

A Wearable Business Plan will create a long lasting project helping students understand business concepts through collaboration, design and communication. It will integrate business math, design and artistic creativity.

During this project students will create a business plan based on a t-shirt company that will be pitched in front of their peers and select staff members similar to Shark Tank.

The business plan will contain marketing, price, short/long-term goals and management design.

To engage and motivate students, select groups will design, create and sell their shirt designs while using their business plan for guidance and direction. They will by hand use the materials to create and sell t-shirts as a fundraiser for a senior gift. The transaction of money will have to be transferred through the Math department and if students want to purchase additional shirts they will have to borrow from that math department as well.

Overall this putting a business plan and making it semi-realistic and hopefully will inspire students to create their own businesses and understand the costs of create products or services.
