What I learned this week

 I learned this week how to make a flyer. We partnered up and worked together to make a great flyer based on selling an ice cream shop, That taught me how to put many different designs and colors on it. When we finished that we made our own flyer then we switched seats and graded each others work. It was easy and fun. Would like to do it again.

I learned that by partnering with New York's business community, Futures and Options are available to youth to build professional careers. They also provide businesses with a trained educated, and diverse young workforce. they have three key programs, Career Essentials: Career Essentials provides career readiness training to students who have not yet reached the skill level - or age - to be placed in internship positions. The Internship Program: Through our acclaimed Internship Program, students gain vital hands-on experience to prepare for the workforce. The College Guidance InitiativeFutures and Options works with students in both their junior and senior years of high school to prepare them for the college application and selection process.
