Hello to you all. Here is the information about our upcoming Career Day Expo. Please check out who you will have in your room for a presentation. If you have any questions please let me know.
When: May 23rd from 2:30-3:20 at Crocker Middle School
What? Two 20 minute presentations to a group of 6th,7th and 8th grade students
Here are the topics your presenter may cover in your two 20 minute presentations:
·How you use skills from school in your career, e.g., math, writing, leadership, or teamwork
·Pivotal experiences that may have led you into this occupation
·Education, skills and on-the-job training that are required
·What you enjoy most about your work; aspects that are challenging
·Related careers with similar requirements
·Information on entry level salaries and demand in your field
·Work environment and with whom, occupationally, you work
The goal of this event is to look for ways to connect school experiences to the world of work that awaits them. They are going on to high school within the next few years, and are very interested in their futures.
Speakers will have approximately two 20 minute presentations in which they will demonstrate and lead any activities, followed by a 5 minute question and answer period. Groups of students will be limited to 30 per session, so please plan any handouts and souvenirs accordingly. Presenters will be in a classroom at Crocker and may use PowerPoints, Google slides, pictures, discussion, hands on activities or any other model that helps portray their job. An email will go out to each presenter about their room assignment and their student and teacher assistant on May 19th.. Student and teacher assistants will introduce the presenter and will escort them to their rooms. All presenters will meet Mrs. Slater in front of the MPR on May 23rd at 2:20 pm with their materials. Once presenters have checked in, they will then be escorted to their room for their two 20 minute presentations. Student assistants will then escort the presenters back to the front of the MPR at 3:20pm.
