My students will be learning hands-on life skills with these materials. A life skill is a skill that is a necessary, every day skill that a person needs to get through life.
Life skills we will practice with our Coffee/Hot Beverage Cart will include: following a recipe, sequencing steps in an activity, fulfilling an order, appropriate social skills, sharing, peer-peer work, basic number recognition, reading and comprehension, health and hygiene, and so much more.
As you look through this list of skills, these are all things we need to work and live our lives independently. My students have exceptionalities, that make it harder for them to learn everyday skills, like their peers. Learning in a multi-model, hands on way is the best way for my students to learn. Learning for my students will include: communicating with their school and community to practice social skills, including appropriate greetings, social exchanges and body language; following multistep directions to complete orders, organize orders and deliver order appropriately; number skills including: money, adding, subtracting, etc.; and completing sequences like, washing hands, cleaning processes, organizing orders and following recipes. As of now, all of this learning will take place at school but we want to see this generalize to their home and community.
