UN Sustainable Goals Entrepreneur Presentations

This week to wrap up our unit about how Markets exist in order to fulfill the needs and wants of a community. The grade 4 children presented their entrepreneurial designs to the a group of teachers and grade 5 classes.

They could work in pairs or on their own and had to create a product that they thought could help one of the UN sustainable goals.


The groups really thought outside the box and came up with was really ingenious designs.
From edible plates, boat that sucks up rubbish from the ocean floor, un-rippable gift-wrapping paper, noodles & water in a can and expandable bags.

The top 6 presentations then presented to the G4 teachers in a shark-tank/dragons den where they had to make a pitch and see if they could get the teachers to buy into their businesses.

Market Minecraft

Over the past few weeks the class has been busy developing their mine-craft market.

They were put into groups of three. Each group had a plot of land they had to develop to make money.

Grow crops then sell them at the market to make money and then reinvest it back into their land to make more money.

 It was a great way for them to understand supply and demand as Mr Matt keep lowering and raising the price of products.
