Conversation Starters (The Home Connection)
Conversation Starters (The Home Connection)
Many parents want to help but don't know what to ask. Provide a list of "Car Ride Questions":
"Which business booth surprised you the most today?"
"Did you meet anyone who has a job you’d actually enjoy doing every day?"
"What is one thing you learned about the difference between a job and a career?"
Information is power. Don't miss the chance to help your student drive their future. We look forward to seeing you at Pathways to Possibilities!
