This week, have your student(s) consider what he or she
would like to do for a job in the future. You may want to have a brainstorming
session for students who do not have any ideas. Have the student write down a
list of things they like to do and things they are good at. Then, help them
come up with some jobs that fit those skills and talents, if they need the
help.
Perhaps your student is musical and organized. That might be
the making of a piano teacher. Maybe your student is mathematical and loves to
sit and solve problems. Perhaps he or she will grow up to be an accountant.
Maybe your student is everyone’s mommy and loves to help around the house and
bake cookies. She may stay home and take care of her family.
You may find that your student(s) already have some ideas of
their own about what to do for a living someday. Perhaps your younger
student(s) will want to be a fireman or circus performer. Go ahead and let them
be anything, in their imagination.
When brainstorming is done, ask your student(s) to write
anywhere from a few sentences (very young students) to an entire page (older
students). If your students are your own children, make sure you tuck this
writing assignment away for later, just to see if their youthful dreams come
true!
