Provide each student with a copy of the task sheet. Have students review and discuss the assessment task and
how the rubric will be used to evaluate their work.
Instruct students to create scrapbooks which depict ten different jobs. Students must:
• create pictures of the 10 occupations
• label the occupations in the target language
• write a brief (1-2 sentence) description of each occupation under each picture
