In this section we will focus on Level 1 Resources and Ideas
World of Work Framework
Level 1- Students will spend time discovering about the World of Work.
Teachers already have many great ideas for teaching about family workers, community workers and global workers.
Assessments:
- Students grade 6-8 will access the Super Strong to learn about their RIASEC code. (One pager overview attached below.)
Other ideas:
- Introduce Holland's Codes (RIASEC) using either the poster or the foam boards.
- Use Original or Pictorial job cards to learn about a job in small groups.
- Explore careers via newspapers and magazines as part of a playlist.
- Collaborate with other students in small groups using the games and activities.
- Play games with the My Job cards during a rotation station.
- Use Reader's Theater scripts during ELD.
- Communicate about strengths, interests and values using the SIVJ cards during whole group instruction.
- Use the puppets to practice oral language skills.
- Read books about different careers.
- Explore the Sanford Harmony materials.
