Each picture deals with one of the following occupations: child care worker, homemaker, horticulturist, carpenter, cook, dental assistant, practical nurse, auto mechanic, cashier, secretary, drafting assistant, and electronic technician. A teacher's guide accompanies each activity sheet with information and suggestions for helping students use the coloring page effectively.
