Front Page Careers

Grab copies of today’s newspaper. Have students scan the articles on the front page. In small groups, have them brainstorm all of the careers related to each story. A story about drought could include: farmers, geologists, city planners, irrigation equipment salesperson, boat manufactures, environmental managers, etc. Have groups share and choose a few to highlight the connection to your course.
