Many students in the ACHIEVE program come to us with a need for a curriculum that focuses time on learning life skills such as: cooking, personal hygiene skills, safety skills, and skills associated with household chores. Teaching these kinds of skills at this age will set my students up for success and increased independence in the future, many of them may even use these basic skills in their future jobs!
All of the products included on my list will help teach these skills in one way or another. This includes helping to prep teaching materials and to practice skills with real materials and not just on paper. They will help me cater to all of the different learning styles that may be present in my classroom. If we were to participate in virtual learning, these materials could also be sent home for families to practice with my students.
