Students have to create their own company use their creativity to learn about entrepreneurship and working with others. This project could include the following steps:
1. Split your classroom into groups. Consider the roles that students could play in a business. Be sure there are enough students in the group to fill jobs, but not so many that collaboration is difficult.
2. Discuss community needs. Have each group brainstorm what they think is a good product or service to offer the surrounding community and choose one to move forward with.
3. Assign jobs. Teach students common business roles. Each student in the group should assume a position. This is a chance for students to voice their personal strengths and interests.
4. Write business plans. Ask your students to outline a business plan for their company, which could include prototypes for an invention, plans for where their business should be, and how they want to market the business.
5. Develop pitches. Have your students to develop a business presentation. Each member of the group should have a part in the pitch depending on their business role.
6. Pitch ideas to business leaders. Find local business leaders to come in and listen to pitches, as well as provide feedback on the business plans. This gives students access to community members who can give advice and praise.
Start to become comfortable with business vocabulary, public speaking, advocating for their viewpoint, and overcoming obstacles.
