Our Dramatic Play Center needs some help. We have moved 7 times in the last school year and some of the dramatic play is either in bad shape or just missing. As the teacher, I would like to have the opportunity to allow our students to explore the jobs that are available to them. For them to explore jobs that are needed in our world. Jobs that are every day, underrecognized but in high demand.
My goal for this project is to represent the jobs that are fun and open the student's imagination and give the students a vision of doing that job.
Giving the students the opportunity to explore jobs that are available some thought and consideration of what it takes to do that job. Open their minds, hearts and visions of what jobs can and will be possible if you truly desire to follow your dream.
I work for a Head Start in Oregon. My students are a great group of kids that just need the opportunity to grow, expand their opportunities with open-ended dramatic play. This will allow them to explore jobs by giving them the visuals need to see inside a job.
More than half of students from low‑income households
