Can we Talk Careers with Elementary Students?

 Career Coach, Marsha DeVito, is a believer when it comes to talking careers with elementary students. DeVito took 2nd graders to the Little Buckeye Museum in Mansfield, OH where students ages K-2nd grade can interact with the dynamics of careers through hands-on experiences. 

The students wrote about their experience and just to make these images easy to read they are transcribed below each image.

"I loved visiting your museum. I loved exploring all the rooms too. I haven't been there in like a year. My favorite part was when I got to look inside of stuff like an engineer. I got to see wire and mechanical stuff, it was amazing. On the weekend I will ask my Mom, "can we go to the Little Buckeye Museum? Me and my class want to come again."

"Dear Little Buckeye, I had so much fun visiting your museum today. I learned a lot about different careers. My favorite part is the water table. Someday I want to work at a waterpark one day. Thank you so much for letting me visit. I would love it if you would let my class visit again some day. And your staff was very nice to us."
