Standard Alignments

Schools use Career Adventures lessons in many different settings. STEM is used in a STEM lab, special, elective, or after-school program. Science is used in science class and Social Studies is used in Social Studies classes.

Activities range from 30 minutes - 1 hour. If you need to shorten a lesson, feel free to adapt. A great way to shorten lessons is to exclude design time and get straight to building!

Lessons have several components to engage students in their learning, including lesson plans, handouts, pictures, videos, and writing extensions, vocab cards, and content checks.

Most lessons encourage pair or group work. We suggest having 2-4 students in a group to work on a project.

We cover a wide-range of careers and topics, everything from engineers to designers and environment to cutting-edge inventions. All careers are based in STEM, problem solving, design, and innovation.

Writing extensions let students use their imagination and knowledge of STEM careers to answer prompts. Feel free to send writing extensions home as homework or use in class.

Print out the cards and create a STEM career word wall or inspiration wall to give students the language to talk about their favorite STEM careers.

The badges and certificates are a great way to track students learning and recognize students achievements. Parents also love seeing these items as it helps them understand what their kids are learning.
