Description

Winner gets a free week long half-day camp class, Shark Tank, Jr., at The Chyten Center in Newton! 


In Shark Tank Jr., students play the role of young entrepreneurs as they start with the germ of an idea for a product and business and take it through the entire entrepreneurial process.  Loosely based on the TV show Shark Tank, our students develop prototypes, formulate a business plan and devise a marketing strategy.  Meanwhile, students learn through contextual lessons on concepts such as wages, profits and branding while designing print ads, acting out “TV commercials,” researching real estate locations and creating replicas of their storefronts.  The class concludes with our young executives pitching their ideas to a celebrity panel of parent “sharks.”  These young executives will really be taking care of business!


Shark Tank, Jr. is one of a series of hands-on, real-life learning camps and classes for elementary and middle-school offered by The Chyten Center this summer.  Offered as half day camps, two different camps can be paired to create a full day program for your child.
