The BC Curriculum for Career Education for Grades 6 and 7 emphasizes personal development, community connections, and leadership skills, all resonating with the Circle of Courage framework. This model promotes belonging, mastery, independence, and generosity, crucial for nurturing well-rounded individuals.
In this context, students explore their strengths and preferences, linking them to potential career paths while understanding the influence of peers and family on their decisions. Recently, Mrs. Helmer, Ms. Hamm, and Ms. Loewen's classes participated in an engaging lesson led by Work BC. They learned about various job options, the skills required for specific careers, and how to create effective resumes and present themselves professionally.
This hands-on experience not only aligns with the curriculum’s focus on personal growth and community involvement but also encourages students to contribute positively to their surroundings. Overall, these lessons equip students with essential skills and a sense of purpose, preparing them for successful futures in the workforce and fostering a supportive community.
