2. Verbally discuss the occupations that require the use of geography. (Examples include: Mailman, Professional Athletes, Rock Stars, Politicians, Pilots, etc.)

3. Students will then choose two occupations from the list and they will also be required to come up with two additional occupations not included on the list.

4. The students will write an essay explaining how each of the four occupations include Geography (i.e.: mental maps, etc.). Prior knowledge of the Five Themes of Geography would be helpful.
