Que Sera Sera
It is great that you integrated a lesson plan with also guiding students to think about their future. It reminds me of the song Que Sera Sera, whatever will be will be...Getting child to think about their future and learning about grammar is great! I will download the plan and see how I can tailor it for use in my class.

Lesson plan
I think that , it is really a great idea. Actually we sometimes try to do it and give the students chance and opportunity to express their thoughts and meanings freely. To learn students" thoughts and their meanings, is a good idea and also it helps them to know much about their future and to feel themselves as a real person.
A recommendation
The activity is great, but the slips of paper to cut out end up being very small and can't be seen from a distance when pasted to the board. Larger ones would be a good idea. Of course they could write on the board, but I like the idea of doing things differently.
