You're in the right place!
I know how hard it can be to find good college and career readiness resources.
This is why I used my 30 years of experience, including 12 years as an AVID teacher, and created all my own engaging interactive Google Slides presentations, worksheets, rubrics, and project-based lessons.
I've already put in all the work, so make your life easier and check out my resources! Keep reading to learn more!
feeling lost and exhausted trying to find engaging college and career readiness LESSONS?
Hey there!
How do you prepare students for college when they aren't even sure if they want to go? You can't just tell them it's the right thing to do! No, they need to know all their options and figure this out on their own! Here's a lesson on Post-High School Paths.
Is college worth it?
How do I get into college?
There is so much to cover to ensure your students will be college-ready and get into colleges that suit them and their aspirations. Where do you even begin? I have a lesson for this too!
what your students are probably wondering:
How do I choose a career?
A lot goes into choosing a career, from exploring interests and abilities to finding career matches and doing further research. I have the perfect interactive career exploration resources to help you with this!
Start with your students' needs...
5E Lesson Design
All of my Google Slides lessons follow the 5E Instructional Model (Engage, Explore, Explain, Elaborate, Evaluate) presented in a clear, predictable slide deck similar to a Hyperdoc. This consistent structure helps students know what to expect while engaging in inquiry-based, student-centered learning. The 5E Model, originally developed by BSCS (Biological Sciences Curriculum Study), supports hands-on learning, reflection, and the Gradual Release of Responsibility (I do, We do, You do).
Collaboration
Collaborative work engages students because it increases motivation and creates an “atmosphere of achievement” when students feel responsible for helping each other learn. My Google Slides presentations include many opportunities for students to collaborate, either in pairs, groups, Socratic Seminars, or Philosophical Chairs. Get my Socratic Seminar lesson that can be used with any topic.

Inclusive & Diverse Representation
Representation matters. My resources are thoughtfully designed to include diverse representation. When students see themselves represented in their learning materials, they will relate better, feel seen and valued, get more interested, and be more inspired to learn.
"This resource provided clear directions for students to follow as they took their career interest quizzes and then had to evaluate their outcomes further."
