Why I Have My Students Fill Out Timesheets

by

Practice vocational skills by having students fill out time sheets for on & off-campus jobs, and even student businesses.  This is a very age-appropriate and functional alternative to decorating a bulletin board or wall in a classroom with older students.  Filling out timesheets will practice ...

Community-Based Instruction Scavenger Hunt Ideas

by

I remember going to stores as a child and unless my parents told me I could pick something out or gave me money to purchase something, I wasn't very interested in being at the store.  Don't even get me started on Home Depot…it was the most boring place in the world for me as a child, I dreaded it! ...

TURNING FINISHED STUDENT WORK INTO A VOCATIONAL TASK

by

Sometimes it can be easy to get carried away in doing things for our students.  The important thing to remember with life skill or older students is that every moment is a teachable moment!  Rather than doing it for them, teach them how to do it so that they can be as independent as ...

RECYCLE WEEKLY CIRCULARS & MAGAZINES WITH THESE CUT & PASTE LIFE SKILLS ACTIVITIES

by

If you're like me, you feel bad about throwing away your weekly circular ads.  I get upwards of 10-15 different store ads each week, so I wanted to find a way to make a "teachable moment" out of the ads with my students.  I am all about trying to save money on resources and what better way than to ...

THE NEW STURDY WAY TO MAKE FILE FOLDERS

by

I used to make file folders the traditional way with manila folders when I had access to a large laminating machine. It was cheap, easy to assemble, and made for great filing organization. When I came to my new school, there was only a "one page" laminator, so I even went to the lengths of using ... READ the POST

Product Reviews

from special educators

Theresa S.

This resource has been extremely beneficial. I teach students with moderate to severe disabilities who are on a certificate of completion for high school. This resource was helpful in establishing a routine for my students. Students remained engaged and enjoyed many of the activities. The consistency of the warm-ups allow for me to introduce students to working together appropriately and seeking help and support from peers not just teachers. The differentiated levels help save time and support students varying levels. Students remain engaged and it quickly hits on different life skills reviews.
Life Skills Daily Warm Up Worksheets BUNDLE

Christine S.

I love everything about this resource. There are enough activities to last a year. The lectures and digital activities are my favorite with the real photographs. My students are learning and there seems to be enless materials in this bundle. I also love the creative CBI (community based instruction) ideas that go beyond the typical scavenger hunt.
Vocation Units 1-12 Full Year MEGA Bundle + Supplemental Materials

Kaitlyn Dini (TpT Seller)

Adulting Made Easy makes the absolute perfect resources for my Life Skills students who are about to graduate. Her resources teach practical skills that they will use in their lives and they don't view as being too immature for them (which is common in sped). Thank you so much for creating these resources!

Stacey S.

As a teacher new to the role in vocational education, Adulting Made Easy's vocational products work great! It was an easy way for my students to understand various aspects of job searches and employment.   The vocational units saved me a ton of time by not having to create items on my own.

Erica B.

This was awesome to use with both my at-home learners and my in-person learners. I could use specific ones with our weekly theme during my vocational skills class. It was especially great at keeping my at-home kids engaged when I wasn't there to watch them.
 
Independent Skills - Boom Cards & Interactive PDF BUNDLE

Teaching Tiny Bugs (TpT Seller)

My students love using this resource for their morning work. I have many non writing students, so being able to engage in a lesson with them using drag and drop and visual icons is the reason this have become one of my favorite resources this year.
