Entrepreneurship

by Alex Kahan

From the early days of traders and trappers to today’s global online marketplace, business is the glue that holds our world together. In Entrepreneurship: Create Your Own Business, children learn what it takes to transform a great idea into their own new business. Through plenty of hands-on activities, art and history meet economics and math while young readers gain a solid understanding of how a business works. Kids use familiar resources to develop a business idea of their own, create a presentation for potential investors, and utilize basic cost and price analysis worksheets. The skills they learn by writing a business plan, creating a prototype of an item to sell, designing packaging, and finding ways to advertise their products translate into language, math, and problem-solving skills that are relevant across all subjects. Cartoon illustrations, fun facts, and interviews with successful entrepreneurs make Entrepreneurship entertaining and informative. Supplemental materials include a glossary, list of resources, and an index. Entrepreneurship meets common core state standards in language arts for reading informational text and literary nonfiction; Guided Reading Levels and Lexile measurements indicate grade level and text complexity.

by Cordelia Strange

Global warming, water and air pollution, and the loss of ecosystems are just a few of the environmental issues facing us today. The good news is there are actions we can take to prevent further issues, and hopefully even to correct some of the negative effects. There are even people who choose a career in environmental science and devote their lives to studying and trying to fix environmental issues--could you be one of them? The young adults of today will be the job force of tomorrow, so choosing a career that will best fit with the needs of the changing world will be important to job satisfaction and a successful life. With the vast array of career and job options, it will also be important for young adults to understand which work will be the best match for their interests, talents, goals, and personality types. Certain careers are expected to gain importance within the early decades of the twenty-first century. According to the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics, the number of jobs for environmental scientists and specialists is expected to grow much faster than the average rate for all occupations. The environmental issues facing the planet today affect everyone in the world. If you choose a career in environmental science, you would be a part of making the planet a healthier place for future generations. You could help save the world--and that's not a bad day's work!
