When: Fall and Spring Semesters
Aimed For: Elementary Students
Faculty Advisor: Peter Piepmeier

SIFE works with Junior Achievement (JA) and local elementary and middle schools to bring the fundamentals of business to this age group. There are five lessons, 30-45 minutes in length. SIFE members who are Education majors can receive credit towards their required urban field experience. SIFE will also be involved with Junior Achievement in other projects during the school year.

SIFE members partner up to teach each module. Working in groups of 2, lessons are taught at local schools. All of the information for the lessons is already prepared, however, there is still preparation required before stepping into the classroom. This is a great opportunity to get classroom experience. 8-10 students are needed to join this team. Students are responsible for setting up times with the teachers to come in for each lesson.
