Introduction to Xello K-2 | 3:06

Welcome to Career Town

The adventure that students embark on in Xello K-2 is a non-violent mystery that underlines not only the variety of work and workers in a community, but the importance of every worker in a community.

Workers around Career Town have disappeared from their jobs, causing chaos. They are unharmed, but they have been enticed away by Ernestine McNohire, who plans to build her own community on the moon. It’s up to your students to save the day!

In Xello K-2, the Xello Lessons are the Locations students explore in Career Town. They're encouraged to explore all 6 locations on the map and collect clues to figure out where the hidden workers are. While investigating each location, students also:

  • Learn about career paths and the variety of occupation options available to workers
  • Complete reflection activities
