My Project

My students are part of a self contained classroom. They would benefit from learning life skills. I want to provide a grocery store with a deli, bakery, and pizza stand, for them to work learning how to be successful in the community. They will be able to play the role of the employees as well as the customers.

Money, communication, social skills, listening skills, organizing and sequencing are just a few of skills they will learn from this interactive activity.

They really need to work these skills because my students are not going out into the community currently due to COVID and their disabilities.
