Family Life Science

Author: Kim Quinn

Grade Level: 12

Overview:High school seniors will have the opportunity to explore the responsibilities and demands of adulthood as they coordinate their home, career and relationships. They will be immersed in a variety of learning experiences that will allow them to take a hands-on approach to the skills necessary to successfully meet these demands. Additionally, they will be involved in a means to develop a collection of materials to serve as a resource guide for fellow students, share their expertise on two particular life skills of their choice with others and reflect on the demands on us as adults.
