Project charter

A project charter is like a plan that tells everyone what will happen when you want to do a big project, like building a treehouse. It is like a map that shows you where you are going and what you need to get there.

A project charter has important information like what the project is about, who is going to work on it, what needs to be done, and how long it will take.

Think of it like making a list of things you need to build your treehouse, like wood, nails, and a saw. But instead of a treehouse, it’s a big project like building a playground or putting on a play.

The project charter has special rules like making sure everyone knows what to do, how to do it, and when they need to be finished. It’s like giving everyone a job to get the project done.

So, just like how you need a plan to build something, a project charter is a plan for bigger projects to make sure everyone works together to finish it on time and with good results!
