The results of Lemonade Stand Entrepreneurs

Not only did the students develop their own websites, but they also created advertising and even animated commercials (check them out by clicking here).  Here are some examples of their advertising.

Students Spill the Juicy Details

Below are actual blogs from students in the Week 0 Minecraft Math class at Edison.

"I took Minecraft Math at International Ivy and it was so much fun!!! I learned so much from this class!! I learned Multiplication, Division, Fractions, Orders of operations and word problems. The best part was solving a challenging problem and fighting mobs! I heartly recommend you go to Minecraft Math at International Ivy!!!!"

"I took the class of Minecraft Math. Minecraft, being my favorite game, made this class appealing. Our teacher, Daniel, was very negotiable and encouraging. He setup a server that had different types of math that would reward you with resources. He created games that would improve our math skills by playing minecraft and having fun."

"I love this class because we didn't do problems the whole entire time. I also enjoy this class because we get to explore while doing math problems. My favorite part is that we do something different every day like mazes and fighting mobs."

"The best thing I did in Minecraft was fighting mobs."

We hope this may encourage you to learn more about Minecraft Math!

Minecraft Math Matters at Edison

In addition to our Lemonade Stand Entrepreneur class, the rest of the students are taking Minecraft Math. Students are practicing multiplication, division, subtraction, fractions, and more, while eagerly battling evil monsters, building houses, and going on mysterious and exciting adventures. Each day brings a new adventure to our Minecrafters! Below is just a glimpse of the fun that occurs in Minecraft Math. 

Edison Site is Off to a Great Start

Summer has just begun but the campers are already busy with many different activities here at International Ivy in Edison. Wednesday was the summer's first Wet Day, which meant water guns, water balloons and a dunk tank for all! Students and staff both enthusiastically participated in a chance to take a break from class, cool off, and, most importantly, have some fun! Check out this picture of one of the students demonstrating his aiming skills as he throws the beanie bag at the dunk tank target.

Lemonade Stand Entrepreneurs Brimming with Energy

Take a look at the websites developed by our students in Lemonade Stand Entrepreneur class.  On day 1, they formulated their own lemonade - one looked like blood, another was red and another was very traditional "American".  On day 2, they discussed their pricing strategy, picked their location and developed their marketing materials including their advertising and website.  On day 3, they discussed attributes of a good manager versus a bad manager.  Then they agreed on roles for each member of the team (sales vs manufacturing vs cashier) and worked on their scripts.  Customers should be ready for some aggressive sales and pricing tactics.  Buyers beware!!
