Jr. Entrepreneur Presentations THIS Thursday, May 19th!
Please read this important information about our project!
Another part of this project is the students planning and running their own businesses. They have been doing a good job of thinking of a wide variety of business ideas. We want to stress that this is a small-scope business with a goal of earning $10 (total) to spend, save and earn. For example, it could be as simple as your child doing chores at your house for the day, having a family movie night and selling a few "concessions", having a family pizza party and selling the pizza, giving the family dog a bath and a walk, etc. We would like to have the businesses completed by Wednesday, May 18th. We will be holding an Entrepreneur Fair on Thursday, May 19th from 3:00-4:00 in the gym where students will be making a slideshow or poster about their business so please take pictures of their business.
Lyn Morgan from Centra Foundation will be coming to hand out certificates to the students and congratulate them on a job well done. The certificate is for $6 to open a savings account at Centra, $5 of which goes into their new account and $1 goes to Centra Foundation.
The money that your child earns from their business is theirs to keep. Please have them send whatever amount they decide to the organization or charity of their choice. They can decide how much to spend and save from what is left. Please let us know if you have any questions!
Here are links to the documents that the students will be using to guide and help implement their businesses.
Project Leadership and Commitees
We understand that with school coming to an end soon and with spring being a busy season for families, this may be a burden. We would still love for everyone to attend the fair with something to present. We will have some students that can present on their business plan (we worked on this in class) and some that can present on the work that they did in committees for our class business. Please let us know if this would be a burden for your family.
STILL Lost and Found!

Math Goals
I can use many different forms of math to successfully complete my Jr. Entrepreneur Project..
Our students are finishing up their presentation for the Jr. Entrepreneur Fair Their presentations are on their Google Drive if you would like to preview them.
Logging into Students Accounts
Here is the pattern
first two digits are the child's graduating year (which for 2nd graders is 26)

For example itslearning is 26brillr (some of these have different variations if the last name is a common name)
Google example 26brillr@students.bcsc.k12.in.us
Their passwords pattern
Thier six digit student identification plus bcsc
All of the 2nd graders know their regular passwords for the other apps and learning tools but if you need help please feel free to text me on Remind101.
