Sam shares a little inspiration about what kids can be when they grow up (Video)
You may have seen this video on social media or on network news. Sam’s performance and his alphabet of all of the possible things can be when they grow up is entertaining and inspiring! Camille Catlett of Faculty Finds supported by EduAlliance, challenges you as a teacher or a parent to find ways to use this video as a starting point for conversations and activities with kids.
“What might it be like to: …”
- “Have a conversation with children about each of the professions mentioned?”
- “Take each letter of the alphabet and consider other careers that also start with that letter?”
- “Take any of the careers and spend a day talking about it? For example, “H” is for hospital administrator. What is a hospital administrator? Where does she/he work? What do they do? Who are their colleagues? Or just enjoy the flow and then have a conversation with children to learn if they know any other raps or songs about jobs.”
