Introduction to Business - Summer Project - Bee Fearless

(0)
An entry level guide to Business Studies by using the excellently accessible book ‘Bee Fearless’ by Mikaila Ulmer. Our school uses this as a summer project for our student to complete before they begin the Business course. Combined with reading the book this presentation acts as a worksheet, guiding students to reflect on what they are reading and to engage with several business key concepts. We find student that complete this task come in much more motivated and knowledgeable than those that do not. This book came as a recommendation from the Business Teacher Book Club (Twitter @BusinessTeach11 – please join us).
