The second six weeks period of Career Awareness is off to a great start, with students diving into the exciting K12 Inventure Prize curriculum and activities. This innovative program encourages creativity and problem-solving, the students have already shown a strong enthusiasm for the lessons. During the recent sessions, they were especially engaged while creating their own Super Power Heroes, a project that sparked their imaginations and allowed them to explore unique talents and strengths.
In addition to the creative lessons, our first Virtual Reality (VR) session took place in the Media Hub with Mr. Clark and it was a big success. The immersive experience captivated the students, providing a fresh and interactive way to learn about different career paths and skills. This new technology enhances the curriculum by making abstract concepts more tangible and fun, helping students to better understand the possibilities that lie ahead in their future careers.
Looking ahead, the program will also feature a special guest visit from Officer Hines, who is scheduled to speak to the 8th grade classes about "Law Enforcement." Corporal Fletcher hopes to be able to accompany him, providing students with valuable insights into the roles and responsibilities within the field. It is exciting to see how this year’s Career Awareness class is fostering excitement and curiosity about future professions in a dynamic and inspiring way.
