Today you will create a Journal Entry (Weebly Journal) after reading the following article:
https://bigfuture.collegeboard.org/explore-careers/college-majors/the-college-major-what-it-is-and-how-to-choose-one
Please describe what major you are interested in and why you chose it at this point in your life. I realize college is a few years away, and I am sure your interests might change between now and when you are going to go to school, but you will use the information you develop today to research future careers tomorrow. Eventually, you will be responsible for choosing a College, Career, and your first Job after college to complete the PERSONAL MONTHLY BUDGET PROJECT (PMB) over the next few weeks!
After your Journal Entry is complete, please go to CollegeBoard.Org and create an account. (CLICK HERE). You will use this site to research your College and Major and use the information tomorrow to decide what your first career might be. You must complete the COLLEGE SEARCH and MAJOR AND CAREER SEARCH sections of the CollegeBoard.Org website prior to completing the survey below.
When you have completed today's research, please add the name of your college and the major you have chosen to the Google Spreadsheet by answering the following questions on this link:

Tomorrow we will discuss Financial Literacy and Financial Planning. Later this week you will see a list of entry-level positions that people could choose based on a variety of decisions. You will be entering your college and major and choosing a career with this site. Your choices will determine where you will live and what career you will start with. We will also be discussing financial planning and investing later this week.
When you have completed the Journal Entry and the College & Major Survey above, you are free to finish your Yearbook Pages that are due by the end of today!
Good Luck!
Mr. S
