Last week the DECAfé was closed on Monday, it was because a group of second graders visited, wanting to obtain some advice. The second grade students are coming up with their very own imaginary businesses. They had the DECA students explain what DECA was and how it relates to business. They also got an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour, seeing the inventory of the shed, and hearing about some upcoming and past DECAfé promotions. The eager students were excited to learn all of the different working parts of the DECAfé, and were inspired to add some similar touches to their own businesses.
I thought that this was a great thing for EHS to offer to younger students because they can get a preview of what business is like. They can also take the advice from the DECAFe and apply it to their project at school. Also, I think they should offer an elective in middle school that teaches students about business. So, that if the elementary students like the idea of starting a business, they can start learning the advanced material sooner.
