The Description
Students work together to create a mock company. They learn about the 4 P's of marketing and would use this equipment to make commercials about their companies.
Students use Chrome books and Google Apps for education.
We use technology extensively and would love to be able for each child to have a Chromebook, mouse, camera, selfie stick, webcam and cameras to video tape and upload these to their google web site.
Students will create a mock company with four to five other partners. They will write mission statements, long and short term goals. They will also choose a charity to donate a part of their profits. They will learn about Cost of Goods Sold, Gross Profit, Net Profit and Income Statements. They will create a video about the 4 P's of Marketing as it pertains to their mock company. They will utilize the video and create interest about their company. They will collaborate with others to promote their companies.
Students are learning how to collaborate in the business world by creating a mock company.
They simulate doing real world math problems and are able to understand basic business math.
This is what we would purchase:
Nikon - Coolpix S33 13.2-Megapixel Digital Camera - Blue • BEST BUY EDUCATION; $92.29 (3 units) = $276.87
Manhattan Web Cam 500 - web camera • BEST BUY EDUCATION; $9.48 (5 units) = $47.40
Sony - ZX Series On-Ear Headphones - Black • BEST BUY EDUCATION; $10.66 (5 units) = $53.30
Total cost (which includes taxes, shipping, PledgeCents fees) = $550
Back Up Plan
If I do not meet my goal I will continue to ask PTSO, and Park West Campaign Fund to help defer the cost.
