Your job….
• Use the handout Mrs Fox has made
for you (there is a link on my
website…NOTES ABOUT ANIMAL
SCIENCE CAREERS) to read about
the different categories of careers in
animal science.
• You will select 1 category of career
and research the various jobs within
the category (There are 6 broad
categories)
• You will develop a speech based on
the information in this powerpoint.
Every well planned speech includes
research, planning and information
about the topic.
• Your job is to develop a speech to a
group of 8th grade students to help
them discover the broad possibilities
of careers related to agriculture !
• YOU CAN DO IT!
• No one enjoys speaking in front of
others…This is an assignment that
will hopefully help you and your
classmates to overcome an obstacle
and will help us to learn about the
types of careers related to animal
science.
• Today…Please read the handout and
select a category of career that
appeals to you. Research the
different careers that could apply to
the category. You may use any of the
information I have provided in the
handout, but please research and
add more info.
