Explore Personal Care teaches a wide range of independent living skills by focusing on a manageable number of activities: 35 for women, 31 for men.
This blended curriculum seamlessly integrates print materials with video, software, and an iPad app. The blended approach increases student engagement while helping you teach students with varying abilities and learning preferences.
The print component features two gender-specific Survival Guide books with corresponding sets of Activity Cards. These student books are an encyclopedia of personal care activities with problem solving and comprehension quizzes. Activities are presented in a consistent sequence: photo preview, vocabulary, facts, step-by-step illustrations, and helpful tips.
Activity Cards help students create and follow personal routines.
The Teacher’s Manual includes lesson plans, activity performance checklists, sample Survival Guide pages, and quick reference codes linked to the Personal Care Videos. The 19 video segments (on DVD or via online access) present the big ideas in the curriculum—like Taking Care of your Smile and Being Social and Safe.
Personal Success Software and App, meld the Survival Guides with the videos into easy-to-navigate multimedia programs.
