• Lesson 5 - Developing the Pitch

    OVERVIEW

    In this lesson, students will use all that they have worked on so far to develop a pitch for their business idea.

    OBJECTIVES

    Students will be able to:

    ·       Develop and organize a persuasive business pitch that clearly explains a product or service idea, its purpose, and its target audience.

    ·       Collaborate effectively in small teams to plan and prepare

    ·       Demonstrate communication and presentation skills by confidently delivering a 2–3 minute pitch that uses clear language, creativity, and persuasive techniques.
