How to do the skill package

The first step is to choose a skill from the list of skills. Pick one that you really feel would be beneficial for you to improve. The choice is totally up to you, but you should pick one you want to work on for the whole course. The idea is to improve one skill throughout the duration of the course.

Once you have a skill in mind, you need to look over the learning plans. You will need to do one activity from each of the learning plan activities. You will then have a total of 7 activities. The basic requirement is that each activity must be at least one full double spaced page (approximately 250 words).

Your first activity will need to be sent to me (via the website) as you complete it using the skill answer form.Be sure you have met the word length requirment before you send it. The rest of your activities do not need to be e-mailed to me. You will need to print each activity out so that it can be assembled and brought to school by Thursday, October 9 (drop off in room 202 between 7 and 9:00). This is a FIRM DEADLINE!

What should the skill package look like when complete?

cover page
table of contents
each learning plan activity clearly labeled
each learning plan at least one full page double spaced
a one page evaluation of the skill package at the end (summarizing your experience with the skill package

I will will return your skill package and give it back to you on our final night on October 17.

Your final will consist of a 2-3 minute presentation concerning what you learned from doing your skill package.
