Slide Deck

Welcome to Our Career Adventure!

Introduce the slide deck by emphasizing that there are many exciting careers. Ask students if they’ve heard of these jobs and what they imagine each one does.

A World of Careers

Show a colorful slide with various images representing different careers (e.g. doctor, teacher, firefighter, artist). Ask students which one catches their eye and why.

What Do These Jobs Do?

Encourage discussion. Ask guiding questions like, 'What tools do you think a scientist uses?' and 'How does a firefighter help people?'

Your Future is Bright!

Conclude with a slide that invites students to imagine their future. Remind them that they can be anything they dream of with hard work and creativity.
