Cluster Facts: Old and New
• Clusters are a means of organizing or categorizing
all job or occupations.
• Developed by the U.S. Office of Education
• Until year 2000 there were 15 clusters.
• In 2000 the USOE put forth a new system which
was 16 clusters.
• This was more than just adding another number it
was a reorganization and redistribution of jobs or
occupations into new clusters.

Should your students know the
clusters?
• Two points of views…..Yes and No
• Yes --- The purpose of CO is to give students an
overview of the world of work. The 12000 or so
jobs need to be arranged in some logical order so
that students can research and study careers in a
logical manner. But the knowledge that there are 16
clusters may be more important than naming them
all.
• No --- Knowing the cluster is not that important.
This is really useless knowledge that waste the
student time to learn.
How can I teach them the
clusters?
• Simple memorize
– Have them work on this on their own and then give rewards for
those who learn first
– Have then either recite in class or have them write on paper.
– Use some classroom group recitation activities.
• Game(s)
– Circle of chairs each person states one and then next person says
previous one and one more….
– Write on board and erase a little as you all repeat them out loud
• Pneumonic(s) A system to help lead lists by using first
letter of word(s).
Pneumonic
• There had been a good easy Pneumonic that had
been developed and used by teachers in AR for
many years for the old 15cluster system.
• My summer class of 2001 developed their own
Pneumonic as a class assignment.
• I have two here that I will share.
• The first was presented at CO Conference in
Summer 2001 by Allie Brooks, then student and
later the CO teacher at Brookland.
• The second was developed by 2 ag guys and a
coach at the Dequeen site.
