Career Unit

This is the first time since I started my blog that I am actually writing. 

The students are currently working on a career project. Each student seems to be very excited about this project because they are able to learn more about what it is that they are wanting to do after high school. I am very impressed with the career choices the students have. We have a music producer, photographer, animal caretaker, physicist, and a video game designer. Over the past week it has been interesting talking with the students about what they have found out so far on their career choices.

Last week we had a speaker come in from the University and speak with the students about their careers, going to college, how we dress, interviews... The students had a great discussion with the speaker and really learned so much from her.

After the students research their careers they will conduct interviews with someone that is currently in this same type of career. I think it is very important for them to get some insight from someone that is in this career. This will give them the opportunity to learn so much more about their careers.

As a class we will then be putting together an informative video on each one of their careers. Each student will take part in putting the video together.

I am very excited to see how the career research continues.
