The activities designed in this Student Activities Workbook are to be use in accordance with the Business and Career Exploration Program Curriculum. The Business and Career Exploration Program represents a state of the art initiative and first of its kind that comprehensively provides elementary and middle school aged children with reality based positive life experiences of business and career options through personalized assembly presentations, learning projects, entrepreneurship opportunities, mentoring, visitations, and special corporate incentives. The program for many of our youngest citizens reignites the flame and dreams of what our childrens lives can become. With each educational and life experience our children gain a greater understanding of various professions and what they would like to become as working adults. The activities in this workbook are not only enjoyable, but highly interactive and challenging to promote the awareness of our childrens potential. Specific objectives of the workbook include concepts of self-knowledge, development of a basic understanding of interests, likes and dislikes, how to interact with others, an Educational and Occupational Exploration component and a special involvement project entitled Minding My Own Business / Career Planning which facilitates the awareness of childrens abilities regarding entrepreneurship opportunities. The various activities are designed to raise awareness of the relationship between work and learning to the needs and functions of society and the interrelationships of life roles. The elementary grades are also a good time to introduce the importance of personal responsibility, good work habits and the benefits of educational achievement.
