Lesson Plan

Snapshot Exploration Guide

In this 30-minute session, 8th grade students will explore three career snapshots, discuss which ones match their interests, and choose their top options to guide future learning.

Exposing middle schoolers to diverse careers connects personal interests to real-world jobs, builds self-awareness, and supports early decision-making.
