Watch Out “Shark Tank”-Young Entrepreneurs Headed Your Way

A group of fourth grade students from Meadow Ridge School particpated in an Entrepreneur Expo where they created a product that provided a solution to everyday life.

A group of fourth grade students from Meadow Ridge School are gearing up for a spot on the ABC television show “Shark Tank”. These young entrepreneurs each created a unique product based on availability of a regional resource as part of their study of Region-omics. The projects entailed developing a product with a business plan, demand schedule to set a price, marketing plan, prototype and a one to two minute elevator pitch. The students worked hard to create a product that met the project requirements but also one that provided a solution to everyday life. Projects ranged from travel pet bowls to a padded basketball hoop, wheel chair organizer, padded soccer gloves and a wooden desk organizer.

Here is a full listing of the products created by the fourth grade Enrichment class of Mrs. Musielewicz:
