PAC - Character & Skills for Home & Careers - Full Course Kit

(Formerly Practical Home and Shop Skills)

This high school elective course is designed to build positive character and introduce teenagers to basic tools and skills needed to save money and gain employment. Students learn skills involving electricians, plumbers, carpenters, and mechanics, as well as time management and finances . Each of the 75 lessons begins with a narrative involving teenage characters who learn life skills while participating in home, shop or community projects. The course is especially advantageous for students who need practical guidance in employment and domestic relationships. Tools are suggested, but not required.

The story line teaches practical benefits of cooperation with other ethnic groups and neighbors. The authors have crafted the course not only to teach students how to use basic tools, but also to embrace courtesy, honesty, integrity and commitment. The narrative style, graphics and illustrations engage readers, drawing them into the lessons. The companion activities help students work through the course in regular classrooms, shop, or guided individualized learning programs.
