The activities in the publication were developed for use in the exemplary project entitled Models for Career Education in Iowa. Included in the document are an overview of the project's concepts, a diagram of the model for career development being implemented in the project, and an explanation of the model and the self-awareness classroom activities. The remaining three-fourths of the document is divided into three units of self-awareness activities: primary (K-2), intermediate 1 (3-4), and intermediate 2 (5-6). Each of the units deals with the child's physical, social, and emotional awareness in relationship to his awareness of himself, his family, his school and community, and his world. The document concludes with a list of resource materials dealing with mental health and self-awareness for the elementary schools. (BP)
