Welcome to "Shark Tank: Middle School Edition," an innovative and exciting activity inspired by the popular TV show and Justin Shaifer, aka  Mr. Fascinate. In this dynamic learning experience, middle school students step into entrepreneurs' shoes. The core of the activity revolves around students developing their unique ideas or solutions to real-world problems.
