Product Description:

During the transition process, it is essential for students to organize the important information and documents that they will reference throughout their lives. Portfolios provide a way for students to collect and organize samples of their work to show prospective employers or college admissions counselors what they have done and what they can do. The Onaakonan System (Oh NAH kah NON; derived from Ojibwe word meaning "he/she plan it") is a personal portfolio system designed to help transition-age American Indian students plan for their future after high school in an organized and structured way. The Expanding the Circle curriculum includes activites that lend themselves to the use of the Onaakonan System. An Onaakonan System is included with each curriculum book; additional Onaakonan System may be purchased as needed. The Onaakonan System has the following categories: Accomplishments, Vocational/Work, Education, Medical, Support Circle, References, Recreation & Leisure, Residence, Transportation, Legal Monthly Expenses, and Financial Records.
