5. Step 2.) Discussion
Discuss the plausibility and function of certain

A fish business suit is a wonderful idea for the
marine man on the go.

9. Step 3.) Break into groups
Based on interest kids break into smaller groups
Transportation
Architecture

might be your true passion.
(It’s OK to find your true passion by trying other
things out first!)
