2. Lead students in brainstorming a list of careers.
3. Write the students' ideas on the board.
4. Ask each student to select one of the careers on the board.
5. Have each student write the name of a career in large print in the middle of a 4x6 note card.
6. Direct students to find pictures of the career they picked in the magazines and newspapers.
7. Ask students to neatly cut out at least three pictures of their career.
8. Create a "Career Collage" by displaying the names of the careers and the cut-out pictures on a bulletin board.
