SPARK TANK

INSTRUCTIONS: GRADES 1-3 Updated July 2026

Introduction Welcome to Spark Tank—where big ideas take flight! In this hands-on project, students will step into the role of entrepreneur and inventor, turning their creative sparks into real-world solutions. Whether you imagine a groundbreaking invention, a helpful new product, or a business that could make a difference, Spark Tank is your stage to dream, design, and share. Your mission: come up with an original idea, sketch out your plan, and explain why your solution matters. Bring your concept to life on a presentation board and show off how it works. Then, pitch your idea to others and see your creativity inspire the whole Epic community. Spark Tank is about problem-solving, innovation, and learning how to turn imagination into action!

What is an Entrepreneur? An entrepreneur is a person who thinks of new ideas, creates something helpful, or starts a business to share their idea with others. Entrepreneurs are problem solvers and dreamers who make their ideas come to life! For more information about participating in this exciting learning opportunity, please reach out to:
