Incorporate the Career Choices curriculum into your ninth grade English or Language Arts Program
 
In this format all students receive a comprehensive career guidance experience in an academic classroom. Career Choices is, first and foremost, a competency based curriculum. Students build basic reading, writing, and speaking skills through assignments in both the Career Choices text (along with the Workbook and Portfolio) and the literature anthology, Possibilities. Works by such renowned writers as James Thurber, Maya Angelou, Langston Hughes, Robert Fulghum, Emily Dickenson, O. Henry, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, and Elizabeth Barrett Browning are included in this companion anthology. Discussion questions, activities, composition assignments, grammar, and vocabulary lessons meet your state's English/language arts content standards and, at the same time, build on the highly motivational themes of career and choices.
