Life Skills
Life skills are the skills we need to deal effectively with the challenges in everyday life, whether at school, at work or in our personal lives... they help us survive and be successful. Education that helps our young people develop [life skills] has transformative potential.
I feel that is my job as a teacher to create successful, independent students by the time they leave the secondary school experience. This is why my learning area involve things like Food, Textiles, Child Studies and Religion. Subjects which have the usual academic features and a broader use outside of school. These subjects have the ability to help them be successful and find a greater meaning.
I do this through the teaching of life skills, skills that have a broader use outside of school and allow students to see where the content they are learning can be transferred into other realms of learning and their personal life. I want my student to have Find new ways of thinking and problem solving, to build confidence and be independent and successful.
Life Skills include:
I feel the more I develop life skills of the individual I teach, the more these learners are more likely to affect and benefit the world in which we are both living in.
