Broad-based community instruction

Objective: Provide hands-on materials and functional activities for community and classroom use to increase independence.

Secondary students with special needs who need community-based instruction.

Stepping Out takes instruction out of the classroom and into the community. Students learn a balanced blend of skills—from shopping to banking to doing laundry—on planned outings. The instructor’s guide sets lesson plans for 30 community outings. Step-by-step analysis plus 47 reproducible masters. Make your own student resources, including wallet size cues. Users can catch a bus without telling time, pay for a pair of shoes without math skills.
