This is a creative, theme based class in which we will utilize a fun project (designing a cupcake shop) to explore topics such as creating a budget, making advertising plans, accounting for expenses, researching recipes (and even baking your recipe for homework if so desired!), planning business hours, and more. Students will receive a unit packet they can print out for use during our first class. I find one of the best ways to learn is through something fun and engaging! My own daughter's cupcake shop obsession for a few years led me to utilize the idea of opening a cupcake shop to teach a variety of topics in our own homeschool. After class one, students will be expected to create their marketing materials, name their business, and pick out a recipe for the session that they will bake after week 2. During our second class, we will answer any questions students might have regarding their business plans, and make any adjustments as needed. We will discuss figuring out the math for our business-how much do your cupcakes cost to make, how much should you charge, how much will it cost to create your actual shop, etc. For homework, students will figure out all the math using their chosen recipe. Students will also bake their cupcakes this week (don't forget to take pictures!). Students will also put together their "business plan" presentation, which can be anything from a tri-fold presentation board, a digital/powerpoint presentation, a spoken presentation, or anything in between! Get creative! During class 3, students will present their cupcake business to the class. Students will be encouraged to give feedback and ask questions. This class is open to all children ages 8-12, and no experience is required.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hi there! My name is Jessica, and I am a homeschooling mom to four children. I have worked with preschool and kinder aged children for over 15 years, and have done everything from running a preschool center, teaching classes, and designing curriculums for use by others. I also owned my own music business for a few years, teaching children 6 months-5 years the foundational aspects of music. I will offer your young children active, engaging, and fun classes on a variety of topics!
I have my black belt in mma (mix of Tae Kwon Do, Muay Thai, American Boxing, and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu), as well as a blue belt in Jiu Jitsu, and regularly teach classes to everyone from toddlers to adults. I love helping children make a connection between fitness/health and fun by making workouts a fun experience rather than one to dread.
I am a certified group fitness instructor, and carry an additional certification as a Youth Exercise Specialist. I love helping teens and preteens explore how they can be strong, healthy, and active individuals. I hope to give your teenaged children, whether they are active athletes or not, a great workout through a variety of offerings for fitness, strength, agility, etc.
I have a personal love for financial responsibility. Although I run several websites, I especially enjoy running my site dedicated to helping others how to live debt free and financially wise lives. I love teaching children about entrepreneurship and money matters through fun thematic units such as “building their own cupcake shop”, to help them understand money in a practical, meaningful, way.
I hope that my experience in these areas, as well as my background and love for teaching children will lead to inspiring classes that your children leave feeling accomplished, encouraged, and eager to come back for more!
