My Project

My students love talking about what type of business they want to create. Creating a lounge area in my classroom offers numerous benefits for teaching students about business and money. This relaxed, comfortable environment encourages collaboration and open discussions, making financial and business education more approachable and less intimidating. The lounge with chairs and a laptop stand also fosters teamwork, critical thinking, and problem-solving, as students analyze market trends and make business decisions. Ultimately, this space prepares students for real-life financial and business decisions, empowering them to become more informed and confident business creators.
