As a highlight of their studies in business and economics within the social studies curriculum, fifth-grade students at Rhame Avenue and Centre Avenue Schools in East Rockaway recently hosted Entrepreneur Day.
For months, these dedicated students have been diligently preparing for this event. Each student designed and created an original product, developing a comprehensive business plan to market and sell their creations. This interdisciplinary project encompassed various skill areas, including creating business cards, composing advertising jingles, and designing logos, slogans, and websites for their products. In addition, the students manufactured their products and prepared to sell them.
On June 11th and 12th, parents and community members were invited to explore each student's store and purchase products using a QR code scanned with their cell phones.
Entrepreneur Day was a resounding success, providing an enjoyable and invaluable real-world experience for our students.
