Sometimes I like to put together images using picstitch to incorporate memes or anything that my students find funny.
The following is a local donut shop that we are new patrons to. If I worked locally, I would encourage my students to visit.
It's locally owned.
They'd see how quality products increase revenue.
It is totally a food service industry.
I'd challenge the students: if you worked here, what flavors would you invent?
The sign above the shop just says DONUTS, challenge them to advertise or create a new sign.
My story is that I heard about this shop by word-of-mouth. How powerful is that?? Obviously it is powerful because how I heard of it made a big ol stink in a Facebook group that was comparing shops and throwing out negatives everywhere.
Another real life situation to interest students!
Further opportunities - food lab or donut bar. Economics, survey and build a business. History - where did these things come from! Geography - who eats them? Math - pie, circumference, diameter. Etc.
