Families,
Economists in Room #209 will be studying Economics over the next several weeks. We are lucky to have Mr. Banko (Nash's dad) joining us for Junior Achievement twice a week to further engage us as economists and citizens of our world. As a culminating activity for our unit, we will be putting on our very own Shark Tank (based on the popular ABC show). Students will be working in groups to come up with an innovation to solve a problem/meet a need here at Jackson school. We will be discussing what need/problem the product or service solves, as well as the resources needed to provide that good or service (natural, human, and capital). Groups will then present their innovation to a small panel of adults to convince them to invest in their product. Students won't actually be making the product, but they will design it and then tell how it would work, as well as who it would benefit. My goal is to have these presentations on Wednesday, January 17th. Families are welcome to come for the presentation. Please let me know if you have any questions.
