I marked and handed back the "Imaginary Worlds" worksheet we did last day (the green one).
We then had a guided discussion regarding each student's thoughts about their own future and possible careers.
After break we had our own Ceremony of Twelve (luckily, no one was released for misbehaviour). Then the following formal paragraph assignment was given (this will be due at the end of class on Friday -- so students should work on this for homework):
In a formal paragraph discuss the following:
Would you prefer a career that is considered prestigious (doctor, lawyer) but would also require great sacrifice (long hours, stress), or would you prefer a career that would be less prestigious (labourer, janitor, carpenter) that would be less stressful and allow you to spend more time with family and friends.
Remember to look over you last paragraph and try not to make any of the same errors you made last time.
If you cannot decide, then please discuss what kind of career you are considering and why.
This will be due at 1:20pm on Friday, Dec.17th.
