Mrs. Simmons Classes Only- 9/24/12


Phases of Life

The developing phase begins when you are born and ends when you officially enter the work force. This phase is considered the foundation for the next 2 phases. The work phase begins when you enter the work force and ends when you are able to retire. The retirement phase begins when you no longer have to work to earn money and ends when you die.

In two paragraphs (using complete sentences with proper grammar and punctuation)- write out how you see yourself today in all three phases of life in your near future. Let me know what steps you will take to enter the work force or college? What do you have to do and complete to get there. When you enter the work force, what do you see yourself doing? What job? Will you be married? Will you have children? Will you have a house? Where will you live? What things will you need to do to prepare for retirement? In the retirement phase- what things would you like to enjoy? How much money would you like to have saved?
