5th Grade Social Studies EOY Project Ancient Civilizations Shark Tank- students must use their knowledge of the ancient cultures to research, create, market, and sell a unique invention or service to the sharks.

# data[].attributes.body
All students will have the goal of creating a product or service that the sharks will invest in.

Students will have friendly competition to be the top inventor of their product or service in the whole grade.

# data[].attributes.body
As students research their culture and design their product/service they will receive peer feedback as well as teacher feedback and be required to reflect and revise their product/services through the given feedback. One way to incorporate technology would be to have students and teachers using a google form to give feedback to each student. Then students will have a documented version of all given feedback.

Students must research their ancient culture using credible sources (Library databases and books) and in turn they must cite each source properly. As a requirement they will have to provide at least 3 correctly cited sources.

Before students create their product/service they must research their ancient civilization in depth. Teacher will provide lessons and a note taking pack to help guide students and remind them how to find credible and reliable sources.

# data[].attributes.body
Students will be required to use various sources such as print, digital, etc.

Students will use their previous knowledge and their research to become experts in their ancient civilizations.

Students will use a design process to create their unique product or service that is related to their ancient civilization but also useful to the world today.

How can you as an inventor create a product or service that represents an ancient civilization but is still useful to people today?

# data[].attributes.body
Through feedback students will have multiple attempts to revise and refine their prototypes before creating their final product.

# data[].attributes.body
Due to the research, creation, and presentation this project is quite extensive so students will need to work hard and preserve through the whole project.

# data[].attributes.body
Students will need to create a product or service that is useful to both past civilizations and present.

# data[].attributes.body
Students will be required to use the appropriate platform and tools for researching. In terms of their presentation and product creation they will have more choice but will still need a teacher approval in order to make sure all tools/platforms are approved.

# data[].attributes.body
Students will have unlimited choice in creating their original product/service and presentation that they share with their classmates and the sharks.

# data[].attributes.body
Students will be required to present their final product/services in a convincing way in order to have their product invested in by the judges.

# data[].attributes.body
Students will be able to use their classmates for help and creating ideas. As well as for feedback in order to revise and refine.

# data[].attributes.body
Students will utilize Google Docs and other google tools in order to collaborate with teachers and peers .

I usually do this project as an individual project but it would be interesting to have students research individually and then be partnered up in order to create a unique product/service where both partners ideas are highlighted.
