My Project

The goals of this project is to help support my students in building entrepreneur skills through the business development and maintenance. Student would like to sell morning beverages to the school community to increase financial literacy.

Its creating opportunity to help lead the way to discovery!

The items related to coffee and hot chocolate will help stock the first order for the students.

The snacks will provide support to my students who may not have breakfast in the morning.

My students work hard in my classroom. To be able to provide them with the connect four board they have asked for would be great! Along with learning how to play Chess. My students love minute to win it games! This activity will create so many laughs!

The Kindle Fire will help with completing individual surveys, assessments with the students, as well as track their business plan.

The clock will help my students be able to tell time in the classroom. We have no clocks! While the timer will help with a visual of time management to task through out our lesson.

Additionally, the classroom items will help keep my classroom functioning for instance the clip boards, cleaning items for cleaning my room, and etc.
