Students at Princeton Alternative Elementary School and EPIC Alternative Elementary School recently showcased their innovation and creativity in a Shark Tank-style presentation led by their teacher, Mrs. Erica Lewis. As part of the project, students developed original inventions and pitched their ideas to a panel of “Sharks,” aiming to secure imaginary investments in their products.
This engaging activity gave students the opportunity to strengthen their problem-solving, public speaking, and entrepreneurial skills. Their thoughtful ideas and confident presentations were a testament to their hard work and imagination.
Congratulations to all the scholars for their outstanding efforts and creativity! (post 2 of 2)
