The name of your Junior English teacher 5746 Trinity High School Drive Trinity, N C 27370 (return 2 times) Dear (name of your Junior English teacher): (return 2 times) My parents and my grandparents are teachers as well as other family members. I have considered teaching as a career but I don't want to become a teacher because it is a family tradition. For my Graduation Project I want to explore teaching as a career to help give me insight as to whether or not this would be a field that I would like to pursue. (return 2 times) In my research paper I will focus on the educational requirements to become a teacher, the different settings in which teachers work, and the requirements to become licensed in North Carolina. For my resources I will use the Media Center, public libraries, the internet, and interview teachers. (return 2 times) Since I am interested in the elementary school I plan ask an elementary school teacher to be my mentor who hopefully will allow me to spend time in an their classroom. I hope to learn about creating lesson plans and activities for the students. Also, I plan to create some activities and present them to the students. I will journal what I have learned and will also provide pictures of me creating the activities. I will provide to the judges a copy of the activities I created along with a visual students participating in the activities. My cost of my project should not exceed the cost of the visual, the pictures, and the materials for the activities. (return 2 times) Copying someone else's work without their consent is considered plagiarism. If I take someone else's work, then I am committing plagiarism. Also, it is a crime to commit plagiarism, which can affect my grade for my senior research, my Senior English class and my graduation. I will do all my work in the most ethical way possible.
