I am in search for a 20-30 min 5S presentation customized to accommodate grade school students - grades 3 to 8 -. I have been volunteering with schools for many years doing various types of projects with students that are highly motivated not only in their school work but also in extra curriculum activities. I usually come up with suggestions and then we apply them in different settings. We did everything from building benches for school to participate in LEGO robot competitions and from various science experiments and visits to Science Museums to making our own ice-cream.
My next goal is to introduce them to Lean - particularly 5S - in a way they can relate to. I have a lot of material from my many years in the field. However, knowing what makes the young students to be interested in participating, the examples and the overall presentation structure used in the industry are not going to be successful.
If you have anything in this direction I would appreciate it. Even if only pictures from the students' world - e.g. school, home, playrooms etc. - would do it as then I can build the presentation based on them. The industrial and office examples I have would not be of interest to them.
Thank you in advance for help!
Cheers,
George

George,
While not a presentation, you should check out Robert Martichenko's book Everything I Know About LEAN I Learned in First Grade. (http://www.amazon.com/Everythi...st-Grade/dp/0615219691) It's got some great examples.

Hi Sam -
I think so. I've done this with a variety of audiences and it's always been received well.
Send me an email and I'll see that you get it.

I shared a simulation with my son's 1st grade class 3 years ago, and many of them still speak and act to it today. They were able to grasp the concepts better than many of the adults I have trained. It is very basic, quick and visual. I purchased it from a colleague of mine at http://www.theleanman.com/
I too have spent many hours volunteering at schools with projects, data analysis and learning opportunities, and am eager for the day when state government learns the value of Lean in an early education setting, benefitting the teachers, community, admin and students.

Really good. Indian schools have also started doing commendable work in the area of 5S and QC activities. TVS Educational Society at Madurai is regularly organising an Annual competition for the best work done in these areas.
