Before you play
Game teaching guide
What children will practise
Link jobs to the subjects they need, understand skills that serve every job, compare working conditions across jobs, and see that preparing for a career starts at school.
What's in the worksheet
4 rounds, a matching game with 4 pairs each - Engineer with mathematics and physics; translator with foreign languages - Problem-solving with finding a way through obstacles; responsibility with finishing what you promised - Nurse with shifts including nights; freelance designer with setting their own hours - Upper secondary with choosing a stream; higher education with specialising and work experience
How to use it in class
Use in a careers lesson or before children write about what they want to be. 7 minutes. - Play solo, then each child names a job they like and the subjects it needs - Use round 3 to discuss what kind of work they would like: outdoor or indoor, fixed or flexible hours - If many miss round 4, explain the small difference: primary is getting to know yourself, lower secondary is trying many things - Play it linked to a class and the scores go into the class gradebook.
Common sticking points
- In round 4, swapping primary and lower secondary, since finding out what you like and trying a range of things mean nearly the same - In round 1, swapping engineer and accountant, as both answers include mathematics; look at the other word, physics or finance - In round 3, nurse and freelance designer may be swapped because neither works normal hours
