Career+Exploration

=Career Exploration=

Introduction:
As a 5th grader, chances are that you're not completely sure what you want to be when you grow up, and really you don't have to know. Between now and when you graduate from high school the choices you make will make it easier, or harder, for you to get your dream job some day.

As for now, you will soon be learning how to conduct research in order to write a report. In order for you to know what options you have for your future, you will be researching a career you think you might be interested in having some day. So that your teachers can help you with your research you will have to decide what career you are going to research.

Your Wiki Assignment For This Week:
You will go to the web site below. At the California Career Zone website where you will take several mini-quizzes to help you figure out what careers might interest you. Your job is to take the three quizzes and see what the results are. You may explore these careers throughout the week. By Friday, April 6, you must choose a career (and a back-up) that you want to research. You will post on the discussion tab of this page the following information:

Your Name: Some careers that were suggested to you by the quizzes: The career you are choosing to research: Why you are choosing this career? What do you hope to learn about the career?

You may copy and paste the text above into your response. Responses must: answer or give the information asked for, be written in complete sentences and paragraphs, and explain well enough to prove you have put thought into your answers.
