Teacher Directions:
- Make sure everyone has a RIASEC Tally organizer and Resource page that reminds
- everyone of what the different RIASEC letters mean.
- Play the video/Show the image.
o Younger kids might have an easier time completing this activity by looking at
the final image rather than the video.
o If you are showing the video, remember that you can stop it along the way or
show it multiple times.
o Feel free to have discussions as you go to help your child think about what
they are seeing/hearing. - As you watch the video/image, everyone should make a tally mark for each image or
activity they see that interests or appeals to them. Tally marks should be made in the
hexagon. - Everyone should count up their tally marks and discuss:
o Does everyone in the family have a similar number of tally marks?
o What were some of the activities/jobs you saw/heard that were most
interesting? Which were not interesting?
