 * Note to Teachers:**

When I start this project with my students, we discuss the idea of being a professional athlete. I tell my students that they need to declare a major in college in order to play a sport. They need to have a backup plan in case they get injured and can't play a sport. I have my students hand in their PowerPoint/Google Slides after each lesson is completed. They continue on the same PowerPoint/Google Slides. After The first 3 lessons are completed, I show the students their grading sheet because they need to have the correct monthly income to continue onto house hunting and car shopping. This is a great project to incorporate Math skills and Language Arts into the technology curriculum. I do this with my 7th grade starting in January because they need to pick high schools in the beginning of 8th grade.
