Additional+Materials+for+Future+Use

This is an exercise book for career exploration that is geared towards elementary school students. I think this could be a really great resource in our career day project. http://www.pheaa.org/partner-access/k12-counselors/pdf/publications/exercise_mind.pdf

I also found this link as well that is more focused towards college preparation. http://collegetools.berkeley.edu/resources.php?cat_id=126
