My Career Investigation Notebook
Each student completes a simple investigation notebook with a question about one career, picture/prop notes, class source notes, a drawing or dictation about what the worker does, and a reflection on how their thinking changed. The notebook shows individual understanding of the chosen career and the evidence gathered during the project.
Class Career Day Exhibit and Role-Play Booth
Small groups create a shared booth with a poster, prop, or costume piece, then present a short role-play that explains one career skill and how the job helps the community. The booth must show each member’s contribution, include a simple visual of research findings, and name at least one question or surprise from their investigation.
