The units contained in this guide are intended primarily as resource materials to assist grade 5 teachers in identifying units into which career awareness concepts can be infused and also in identifying instructional activities that correlate basic skills and career education objectives. Introductory information includes a definition of career education and an outline of goals for elementary career awareness. There is 1 unit relating to language arts (listening skills), 19 units which relate to social studies (with emphasis on the development of the United States as a nation and covering the areas of student self-awareness, the community, industry, the school, transportation, the environment, and the family), and 5 science-related units (physics, environmental control, biology, marine occupations, and nutrition). Each unit contains the following: An overview, content outline, unit objectives, and unit description (which provides criterion referenced objectives, learning activities, and a list of materials). Materials listed are teacher references, children's books, study prints, kits, films, filmstrips, records and songs, and classroom materials and equipment used in the activities. Additional evaluation suggestions are included for some units. A list of unit authors and their schools concludes the guide. (TA)
