Entrepreneurs and sustainability—the perfect combination! Our advanced math learners will apply math and writing skills to developing business plans for creating sustainable products: reusable grocery/tote bags that they design themselves. Students will study business plan design to apply for micro-loans (loaning of materials for their businesses) and develop a financial statement that accounts for the cost of materials and labor. They will also study graphic design to develop an iron-on for their line of reusable bags. Each class "company" will develop its own line and market their products. Proceeds will create real-life international micro-loans they select through KIVA.
