Academy's 'Shark Tank'
In Penn Christian Academy’s “Shark Tank: Think Your Invention Has What It Takes?” fifth-graders created and pitched their inventions to a panel of “sharks.” The projects related to their prior knowledge of models and inventions. While the project was based on the popular television show, it focused more on the invention process and the item invented, rather than the economics of gaining investment and financial backing. Elizabeth Perza, pictured below with the fifth-graders, is the creator of PCA’s Shark Tank.
