CD covers: middle school. (ClipCard).Our school recently implemented a program to promote career awareness called "School to Career." We assigned each grade level a different project. The eighth graders invited three guest speakers, the seventh graders wrote reports on different careers, and the sixth graders did an art project. Although it is a little early for sixth graders to choose their careers, my primary concern was to make this topic interesting and relevant to their everyday lives, inspiring them to excel in school. We talked about the cost of living and how much a person should earn at a career to live comfortably. I then reviewed different types of careers that are available and what is required to achieve them. We spoke about what schooling would be necessary, the grades needed to attend these schools, and the salary ranges of each career. We decided to combine the career theme with an interesting topic--music. We designed compact disc music covers. Students chose a career of some familiarity, and created a name for a musical group that would reflect the career, such as "The Plant Master" for a botanist or "The Knowledge Group" for a teacher. Next, students listed five song titles for the group that reflected the job functions related to the career. We discussed symbolism Symbolism In art, a loosely organized movement that flourished in the 1880s and '90s and was closely related to the Symbolist movement in literature. In reaction against both Realism and Impressionism, Symbolist painters stressed art's subjective, symbolic, and decorative and how an artist can express an idea or story with pictures and not words. Students sketched their ideas on newsprint newsprint low grade paper used for newspapers. Old newspapers are fed to cattle as an alternative roughage and may occasionally be ingested by dogs. Significant amounts of lead are accumulated in tissues; no cases of poisoning have been recorded in cattle, though it has been paper. The final artwork was done on 11 x 15" (28 x 38 cm) white drawing paper.
