Overview:
The section of the unit plan will be broken up into three class periods. Students will be split up into
groups of three. Group A will be the first group to interview. While group A is interviewing, groups B and
C will use that time for reading and reflection questions. Group B will work on the Case Study on page 35
and Group C will work on the Everyday Applications activities on page 36. The groups will rotate
activities the following class periods.

Students will be given the mock interview rubric and mock interview questions prior to their final
interview to prepare. They will need to schedule a time during the class period to interview with the
