Primary aged children in British Columbia try to guess people’s jobs

Children from Frank Hobbs Elementary School, Victoria, British Columbia took part in a ‘Guess My Job’ activity and tried to work out the jobs four volunteers from the world of work did. The children asked the volunteers questions to which they could only give yes or no answers. For example - Do you work use maths in your job? Do you have to travel? Do you work in a team? The volunteers then left the school hall and children were asked to guess their jobs before returning with props or in uniform to reveal what they did. The aim is to challenge ingrained stereotypes children sometimes have and inspire them to consider the opportunities available to them. The activity is based on Primary Futures’ signature ‘What’s My Line?’ activity and was organised by Bonnie Alexander, District Career Coordinator for SD61 - Greater Victoria, who we have been collaborating with for a number of years. Education and Employers have worked with the Ministry of Education and Childcare to support the introduction of career-related learning in primary schools across British Columbia.
