Improving Store

Improving our student store was something we had to do to attract more costumers. We started off but planning on what we can change about the store so it can pop out more, rather than just having it plain like always. We decided to spray paint a part of the student store from inside with chalkboard spray paint. We heard about this chalkboard paint that worked very well, and we decided to look into to it. My sister Melisa and I purchased the spray paint and the next day we were getting the cabinet ready to spray paint it. We covered all the merchandise with paper and the rest of the wood so it wouldn't get stained. After we were done spray painting it we left it to dry for twenty four hours. The next day we got some colorful chalks and started writing down prices of the chips and snacks. Once we were down it looked very cool. We also had Alfonso draw a mustang on the extra space on the chalk board and also with the help with Adan and Fernando.

New Project Ideas

Coming back from Christmas vacation, my lifers from the student store thought that we should start coming up with a new project ideas, besides the student store. We came up with many options of things we can do that we enjoy. We started off with a list and started writing down some ideas. After that we selected the ones that seemed more reasonable to do, which was animal therapy. We started talking to Mrs. Dewey about the idea and she gave us feed back on what kind of therapy there was. We were going to do the type of therapy where we brought animals to special kids so that they would play with them and get active. Also there is therapy for the elderly where we also bring animals and they get the chance to interact with them. At the end we decide that before starting a new project, we are going to finish up with the student store selling everything.
