For each job class, there are job requirements and qualifications that must be met. Analyze these tasks very critically in terms of your personality and what you like to do.A high percentage of jobs in major careers demand education or training after high school. The training may be very specialized, requiring intensive study or interning for two or more years. You must decide if you are willing to expend so much time and effort.After you have decided upon a career to pursue, discuss the choice with parents, teachers, and others. Such people can help you design a plan to guide you along the series of steps required in pursuing your goal. Keep the plan flexible and change it whenever necessary.

When I visited Mrs. Kenningston's classroom yesterday, the children were still excited about having attended the play.

I'm glad our children have this enrichment.Thank you again for accepting the challenge of watching over the fifth- graders on their exciting trip to Broadway. I know the task wasn't easy, but I felt it was well worth our time.SincerelyMarsha RhodesParent VolunteerEnclosure

As you are probably aware, the play is based on the 1994 Disney film about a young lion's coming-of-age struggles.Attending the play will give the fifth-graders a real sense of New York theatre. The production will be at the New Amsterdam Theatre, built in 1903 and for years considered the most majestic on 42nd Street. With its recent renovation, it has been restored almost to its original grandeur. The theatre is best known as the home of the Ziegfled Follies (1913 through 1927) and George M. Cohan's Forty-Five Minutes from Broadway.This will be a great experience for the fifth-graders. Mrs. Kenningston would like four parents to help chaperone on the day of the production. Are you interested and willing to assist? I will call you next week to determine your availability and discuss details.Sincerely,Marsha RhodesParent Volunteer

117 Whitman Aveune Hartford, CT 06107-4518 July 2, 2009 Ms. GanevaEverett 880 Honeysuckle Drive Athens, GA 30606-9231Dear GenevaLast week at the Educational Theatre Association National Convention, you mentioned that your teaching assignment for next year included an Untrduction to Shakespeare class. I find the Internet to be a very useful supplement for creating interest in many of my class I teach. Here are four websites dealing with Shakespeare that you may find helpful for your new class.http://www.shakespeares-globe.org/Default.htmhttp://www.wfu.edu/-tedforrl/shakesp.htmhttp://www.jetlink.net/-massij/shakes/http://www.albemarle-london.com/map-globe.htmlAnother resource that I use is a booklet published by Thomson Learning: Introducting Shakespeare. A copy of the title page is attached. The booklet contains scenes from some of Shakespeare's best-known works. Scenes from my favorites (Romeo and Juliet, A Midsummer Night's Dream, and Julius Caesar) are included.As I come across other resources, I will forward them to you. Enjoy the rest of the summer; another school year will be upon us before we know it.Sincerely Marshall W. Cline Attachment
