Building Futures infuses career education into a teacher's academic curriculum with easy-to-use lesson plans and informative resources for each grade level.

Manuals are divided into six core subject areas: Language Arts, Math, Social Studies, Science, Health & Physical Education, and Art & Music. Subjects are approached through the concept of multiple intelligences, and the manual provides activities to recognize and develop student competency for each.

The Health and P.E. book for Upper Elementary Students shows teachers how to integrate career education into an already established curriculum. The curriculum guide offers multiple ideas for activities, including – An Apple a Day!, Cancer, Clean Hands, Eat Right!, Fire Safety, Health Club, Healthy & Safe, Marathon, Dance Steps, Helping Hands, Smile, Snack on This, Vegetables on Parade, Walk the Dog and Play Ball.

In addition to creative lesson plans, each spiral-bound manual contains a chart of 125 occupations, organized into 25 career clusters with descriptions of tasks, skills required, and salary ranges. There is also a calendar with career-related events, and numerous website addresses for teachers and students to explore.
