Parents and carers,
Some suggestions of activities/tasks that your student might want to do from next Monday. I understand that this is technically the Easter holidays, so if you want a break please have one. As stated before there is no expectation that they complete all or any of these. The work is offered as a way to instill some routine into the day but you know your student best. If you need any advice or help please email me. I am here for you.
Entry 1:
1.Complete some of the PSD pack – Preparation for Work.
If you look at the unit activities Challenge 1: Use this sheet (from your pack) to help you talk about different skills and qualities:
Cut the pictures out and choose the ones that you think you have. Stick them onto a piece of paper and write your name in the middle.
Entry 2:
1.Complete some of the PSD pack -Preparation for Work.
If you look at the unit activities Challenge 2:
Find out what skills and qualities employers are looking for in their employees. You could do this by:

• talking to employees and employers (your parents have jobs)
Use this sheet (from your pack) to help you talk about different skills and qualities:
2.Complete some of the Employability pack – Rights and responsibilities.
If you look at the unit activities number 2 is:
Talk with others about the responsibilities you have as an employee.
For example: you must let your employer know if you are ill or taking a holiday.
What might happen if you don’t carry out your responsibilities at work?
You could produce a poster/picture that shows your responsibilities and what might happen if these were not met.
