Full step-by-step domestic skills program for independant living!

A step-by-step domestic skills program that focuses on common housekeeping activities. The Curriculum includes an instructor's guide and hands-on student resources. The instructor's guide offers training strategies that are easy to follow with clear directions and task analysis. The guide shows how to seamlessly integrate the student resources into your lesson plans. It organizes activities into seven areas by location: General skills, bathroom, bedroom, kitchen, laundry, indoor maintenance and outdoor maintenance. Each activity provides objectives, training suggestions, potential problem situations and a task analysis that corresponds to the picture step pages. Difficulty levels of the activities range from easy (emptying wastebaskets) to complex (washing clothes). Includes a well-thought-out record-keeping and goal setting system. Student resources feature a pocket book and 72 laminated routine cards, most with corresponding picture step pages. Routine cards cue the user to the sequence of activities and are displayed in the pocket book. Photocopiable step pages act as illustrated task analysis used to teach an activity, like sweeping the floor. Includes a 135 page instructor's guide with reproducible record-keeping system, 72 full-color laminated routine cards with storage box, one pocket book and 55 step pages.
