What Is Life Skills?

Life Skills is a type of special education class that is designed for students with severe and/or multiple exceptionalities. It is made to teach basic skills that are essential for life (hence the name life skills). This means anything from cooking, cleaning, grooming to balancing a checkbook, cashing a check, filling out a time sheet, to even basic yes/no communication. Depending on the students needs, life skills class varies greatly.

Picture Schedule


This is a picture schedule I made for one of my students. It is on the back of a clipboard so that the front can clip onto wheelchair tray. The icons are attached with Velcro so the student can move the icon of the current activity to the top of the board.
