create a uk lesson based on year 4 careers day. make it interactive led by medical students. I will be presenting this in the hall, so make it interesting and fun but also educational. We are hoping to be doctors in 3 years so we want to motivate children who might want to do this as a career. Provide a quiz - with an image of a healthcare profession and children can guess what type of doctor that is.

This guide provides a framework for a 45-60 minute interactive workshop aimed at introducing students to the medical field through engaging activities led by medical students. Essential materials include interactive career cards, prop stethoscopes, scenario prompts, and role-play badges. The session focuses on various medical specialties, a typical day in the life of a physician, and the pathway to becoming a doctor. Students engage in quizzes, role-playing, and demonstrations, cultivating an understanding of healthcare roles and inspiring potential career interests in medicine. Emphasis is placed on collaboration, problem-solving, and the impact of healthcare professionals.
