Market Validation & Product Conception

The Grade 5 Capstone: The Exhibition & Entrepreneurial Pitch

Your child can identify a gap or problem in their current community or global travels, survey potential users, and design a product prototype or service concept to solve it.

In real life

Your child notices travelling families constantly losing water bottles, interviews five other kids at the co-work hub, and sketches a clip-on bottle sleeve. Then they ask the same kids whether they would actually buy one.

Capstone standards are the culminating projects of their stage — evidence that the year's work came together in one piece.
