HappyLady Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Ok, I'm not sure how to word this, so I hope someone can understand what I'm looking for. :) When listing (in the future) what skills, etc, that we worked on (when I have to report) I need help with deciding what counts. For example, cooking dinner would be Home Economics. Recounting of a story would be Comprehension. Played with friends would be Socialization, Sharing, and Communication with Peers. I took these examples from another site. :) I don't know what counts as what, what even counts, what "Home Ec" and "Comprehension," etc, are considered...... called...... do you know what I mean? I understand "Math," "English," "Science"....... those are "Subjects" and I know them because of going to PS. But all of this other stuff that I see people reporting just confuses me. :( Can anyone give me some guidance? Is there a list of these skills with examples of each so I can understand them better? :confused: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Mungo Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Where do you live? How old are your kids? What have you been reading? I haven't ever reported life skills that any child learns as something that we did for school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyLady Posted December 14, 2011 Author Share Posted December 14, 2011 Where do you live? How old are your kids? What have you been reading? I haven't ever reported life skills that any child learns as something that we did for school. I don't have to report for a few years yet so right now I'm just trying to figure out "what counts" in their daily lives. Maybe I don't need to list life skills. :confused: I guess I'll just stick with "math, English, science...." :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescrappyhomeschooler Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 Do you know the requirements for your state? My state has a list of all the subjects I'm required to teach. So, for our annual portfolio, I put in examples from each of those subjects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
