We started our final project for our Career Unit this week! Students gave a final look at the six Career Clusters that we've been talking about and compiled a list of characteristics and jobs for each one. I would encourage you to name a career and see if your student can tell you what Career Cluster it belongs in and why!
6th, 7th, 8th Grade
I wanted to share a website with you all! As a parent of a 5th grader, I use this a lot when she comes home from school talking about a new TV show or a new app that I haven't heard about! Common Sense Media is a great way to review apps, TV shows and movies to see what they are all about!
