Objective: Prepare students for independent lives by building a portfolio of life skill accomplishments.
A highly structured, comprehensive curriculum that allows students to work toward independence by learning functional life and academic skills. Following this program, students build a portfolio they take with them throught the grades as they approach graduation. Each of five sections contains 25-40 skill areas which vary in difficulty from 1-5. Sections include: Functional Academics; Home; Outdoors; Recreation and Health; Community, Country and World. A PDF on CD contains lots of supplemental materials to those provided in the book. The curriculum in this book provides a wide array of life skill training and documents those skills for future reference as students progress through the grades.
