Tapescripe 1:
The Earth is the third planet from the Sun in our solar system. It is special because it has
everything needed for life. The Earth has land, water, and air.
The land on Earth has many different kinds of places. For example, there are tall mountains like
the Himalayas, big deserts like the Sahara, and thick forests like the Amazon. The oceans cover
most of the Earth and have a lot of water.
Earth is surrounded by a layer of air called the atmosphere. The atmosphere is very important
because it protects us from the Sun’s strong rays and helps keep the temperature just right for
living things. Without the atmosphere, Earth would be too hot during the day and too cold at
night. The atmosphere also helps to make the weather good for plants and animals.

Speaker: Tom Green, Career Advisor
Hello students! Today, we will talk about choosing a career. This is an important decision. Here
are some simple steps to help you choose a job.
First, think about what you like to do. Do you enjoy helping people, working with machines, or
being creative? Knowing what you like can help you find the right job.
Second, look at different jobs. You can read about them online or talk to people who have those
jobs. Find out what they do and what skills are needed.

Third, check what education you need for each job. Some jobs need special training or a
degree. Make sure you are ready to learn what is needed.
Finally, think about how the job will fit into your life. Will it allow you to have time for family
and friends? Will it make you happy?
Remember, choosing a job is a big decision. Take your time to think about what you want. Good
luck!
