Join me as we dive into the crucial, but often overlooked aspect of explicitly teaching life skills to special education students, using task boxes. We will chat about the misconception that life skills are solely the responsibility of the parents or can be learned at home, and acknowledge the fact that educators play a key role in fostering independence in their students.
In this episode you are going to hear about my own experiences and challenges incorporating life skills into daily lessons, especially for neurodivergent students. Task boxes are a practical tool to break down sequences of life skills into manageable steps, and provide structure for our students to build confidence and independence.
You won't want to miss this episode as we dive into my year-long curriculum, covering essential life skill categories. The ultimate goal here is to seamlessly transition learned life skills from task boxes to real-world applications. Let's empower our students to navigate their day-to-day lives with confidence!
