Third Grade Market Upcycles and Donates Proceeds

Our ​3rd Graders hosted a culminating Market Day for the school year yesterday and invited parents to shop. All products were made with upcycled materials such as plastic water bottles, toilet paper tubes, Crystal Lite containers, old tin cans, juice can lids, bottle caps, shoeboxes, etc. 
The students chose business partners, made a business plan, created prototypes, gauged their target audience and had to purchase any capital goods using their combined investments. Proceeds of the sale - which totaled more than $1,100 - went to Comfort Zone Camp, a Lower School community outreach partner.
