Melrose High School Algebra 2
Day 3
Skills & Interests
Now that you know more about your personality, let's see how your skills and interests may also affect your future vocation (job) and, consequently your trade school program or your college degree.
The way this survey works is you answer questions about what you like and what you are naturally good at, and then the program gives you some ideas of jobs that might be good for you. Click below to get started. Then you'll include 5-7 complete sentences in your Life After Melrose paper about how your skills and interests will shape your degree, program, and job.

After you have written about your Skills and Interests results, you should have a full page written when combined with yesterday's writing about your personality result as well as your introductory paragraph. You are well on your way to completing your Life After Melrose project. Take a minute to edit your writing. Clarify, check punctuation, pick a more descriptive word, elaborate on one of your thin points. Read your paper aloud, and see where it doesn't sound right. Finally, make sure you are using Times New Roman, 12-point font, double-spaced, with 1 inch margins.
When you have finished your paragraph, bring it up and I'll give you some feedback and sign off.
