Today we began working on our project for the EA (Entrepreneurial Adventure) Program. First we decided on a publishing date for our cookbook, and then began to work backwards figuring out how long we thought it might take to get all of the tasks done which will be required. Students decided on a publishing date of March 31st.
We also decided that we want to do some marketing for the cookbook at the News Show. We decided we needed a website announcement, some posters, a skit and short speech, and a way to allow parents to pre-order the cookbook. We decided that we will show a short skit at the News Show to advertise our cookbook, and then have a stand outside the gym after the show to give parents a chance to pre-order the cookbook (with a deposit) as a way to gather some seed money to support the printing costs.
We then broke up into a number of groups to divide up the work that needs to be done. We will be working on this for the next few days until the News Show.
Additionally, I am posting the students presentations below, because all of them were done quite well. I am really proud of our class for the work they have done so far, and the task that they are taking on. I am truly amazed by their enthusiasm and generosity.
