Help me give my students classroom resources to promote development of highly desired job skills and encourage them to start thinking about their possible future careers.
Choosing a future career is complicated and sometimes even uncertain and scary because a career choice can be for life. My students have special needs and require additional supports in academics. While in high school, they are highly encouraged to be thinking about their future career choice and exploring possible career options. Some may take vocational classes in a variety of fields, e.g., medical, tourism, science, STEM, auto mechanics, programming, engineering, aviation, etc.
“Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life." —Confucius
My Project
Imagine high school students trying to figure out what their future career might look like...This is a daunting task in itself.
Let's help them explore as many careers as possible and help them learn what job skills their future employers value the most.
The posters and motivational signs promoting careers and skills set required for securing a career of choice will be displayed in the classroom to remind students what they should be aiming for. Hands-on LEGO & KNEX construction design mini-projects will be available for students in the classroom. My hope is for students to decide early on what career to pursue.
