CAREERS ARE EVERYWHERE
Children start the process
of exploring the world of work as early as the elementary grades. With each
class they take, with each life experience, they gain a greater awareness of
the nature of work and begin to form ideas about their future career roles.

The activities in this
workbook are intended to be fun and challenging. They have been designed around
the building blocks of the elementary National Career Development Guidelines
with the goal of raising career awareness. Specific objectives of the workbook
include the concept of self-knowledge, the development of a basic understanding
of interests, likes and dislikes and how to interact with others. The various
activities are also designed to raise awareness of the relationship between
work and learning, the awareness of how work relates to the needs and functions
of society and the interrelationship of life roles. The elementary grades are
also a good time to introduce the importance of personal responsibility and
good work habits and the benefits of educational achievement.
These activities can also be
used with older students with disabilities.
