Here is the assessment tool tied to the Daily Living Skills series that you have been asking for.
This assessment package has been updated to include all the assessment tools offered in the Daily Living Skills program. They include:
Parent/Student Priority Inventory: This tool allows parents and, separately, students to describe the kinds of skills they are hoping to attain in the transition process. Each fills out what skills they believe the student already has acquired, what they want to learn, and what is less important to them so that you fulfill the federal mandate to seek family/student involvement in the transition process.
Pre- and Post-Assessments: Three tests make up this bundle with an additional page in each to provide National Standards. Each can be used as a pre-and post-test with students either self-reporting or demonstrating skills per your preference. Skills are grouped by purpose, aligned with individual workbooks and tied to National Standards for Transition. Each section of the test has a code for the standards met by the book and a complete definition of the standard in the key for ease in tying goals to IEP’s.
The tests are:
Job Skills–
Professional dress, seeking employment, interviewing skills, getting a paycheck, time management, college and career, overcoming failure, managing stress, unwritten work rules, and voting.
Social Skills–
Making conversations, safe dating, everyday manners, fair fighting, becoming likable, building character, self-awareness, self-esteem, self-confidence, self-motivation, practicing patience, and decision making.
Adult Living Skills–
Cleaning house, doing laundry, paying bills, transportation, staying healthy, buying insurance, outdoor chores, hygiene for girls/guys, and cooking.
Transition Progression Plan: Once you have completed your testing and engaged the student and family in skills preferences, this 3-6 year planning guide allows you to create a seamless plan to meet needed and preferred skills over the course of the transition period. By keeping a handy record of what topics student has mastered and what they still need to work on, you can avoid duplication and make the most of the time the student has in transition. Additionally, should the student change schools, this plan can follow them to their new location for seamless instruction.

Here’s a cost-saving way to create a cooking unit for your students.
Begin with KITCHEN BASICS—and teach about safety; cleanliness; cookware, bake-ware and tool vocabulary; measurement and kitchen organization. (Pgs. 41)
Add NUTRITION—and have students learn about food groups, a balanced diet, the food-in/energy-out equation, vitamins and minerals, and low-cost/high-nutrition foods. (Pgs. 42)
Then use GROCERY SHOPPING—to shop for the foods you learned about in Nutrition as students learn about grocery story layout, reading price tags, unit pricing, coupons, list-making, and food storage. (Pgs. 40)
Put it all together with MAKING MEALS—this video-modeled “cook-book” uses the low-cost/high-nutrition foods from Nutrition to create easy one-pan meals and then helps students create their own variations of the recipes in step-by-step lessons that empower students to cook and bake. Download all the videos for free off this website and you’ll have a comprehensive, dynamic unit plan for your students. (Pgs. 43)
Videos in this series are: Making Oatmeal, Microwave Hot Dogs, Microwave Mac ‘N Cheese, Making Microwave Burritos, Microwave Popcorn, One-Pan Pasta, One-Pot Soup, and One-Pan Cake.
Like all Daily Living Skills workbooks, this series is written on a high third/low fourth grade level and targeted to the mild-to-moderate population (although, you’ll see in the ratings, many teachers of students with moderate-to-severe disabilities have used the program successfully.) All vocabulary is defined immediately in context so students build confidence in the information. Pages are light and airy with lots of bullet-points and pictures, and are set with a tone that is friendly, yet respects the sensibilities of this age group. Every book contains an answer key and Parent Letter explaining what transition skills you are addressing along with suggestions for parent follow-up at home in compliance with federal mandates.
Lessons can easily be used in a “buy today/use today” fashion with no training and little preparation (except “Making Meals.”) Or, if you are a newer teacher or new to special education, the DAILY LIVING SKILLS TEACHERS MANUAL gives information on classroom organization and program set-up along with Indicator 13 support and a variety of written ITP goals for each workbook. (You do not need to buy the Teacher’s Manual—it is offered at the request of some teachers.)
