The Assignment

Dear Parents,

As part of our community unit, we will be having Job Day in our class on Thursday, March 10th.  Please have your child discuss with you what she would like to be when she grows up.  On Thursday, she may bring or wear the clothes/uniform for that job.  Please help her find the tools, clothing and other items a person with that job would use to bring in and share with the class.  Each child will present their job and tell what tools/materials that are used in that occupation.  Please help your child answer the questions on the attached sheet to help them prepare for his presentation next Thursday (please have your child bring this questionnaire with her that day).

We look forward to seeing all the future doctors, teachers, artists, construction workers, police officers and other “workers” next week!

Thank you!

Mrs. J
