This multi-disciplinary project allows students to explore a career. I created it to help students discover the educational requirements, the employment history, the application process, and the typical lifestyle led by someone with that career. The project takes between 6-8 weeks to complete but is well worth it. I believe it helped students realize the value of an education and inspired many to take school a lot more seriously. Rubric included. Related materials (lesson plans, samples of cover letters and resumes, pay stub templates, etc.) for sale upon request due to current inability to attach or zip file.

I teach in a New York City Public High School. This year is my sixth year teaching English there. For two years I served as the AVID Coordinator. In addition to teaching, I have served as a Cooperating Teacher for student teachers and a mentor for a new teacher.
