MIDDLE SCHOOL CAREER EXPLORATION

Extra Help!

Grade Recovery: You should always do your best work first, but if you find you earn a grade on a portfolio that you don't like, you may resubmit up to one time each.

Please watch this SHORT LIVE LESSON before starting our class. You will be glad you did!

Unit 2 - Knowledge and Innovation
- In this portfolio, you are going to analyze 3 different people to evaluate what career might be good for them and why.
- I have made a worksheet you can fill in if you don't want to create your own document, but you will still need to read about each of the 3 people in this lesson.
