Career Speaker Assignment
- Each of you will arrange a guest speaker who will come to class and talk about their career. This assignment is worth 100 points of your grade.
- This may be a relative: Mom, Dad, Grandparent, Aunt, Uncle, etc. It must be a person who something other than an entry level job that you could go get right now-example: don’t invite your friend who works at the mall, or the car wash or babysitting. It can’t be a STUDENT at this school. It could however, be a staff member.
- Arrange the date and time with the person and immediately (the next day) bring that information to class so you can put on the calendar. If a speaker is already scheduled for that day you will need to rearrange with your invited guest. (It won’t work to have 2 people the same day).
- The scheduled is first come first served.
- There is a letter for you to give to your guest speaker which explains a little bit about the class, the time the class meets, general directions to the school and most importantly, what the speaker should share with the class. Have the speaker complete the bottom part of the letter and you can return it.
- When the speaker comes to class, all class members will take some notes on the presentation that will be placed in your portfolio.
- All career speeches will need to take place by April 22nd.
