Description
1. The students will pretend that
they are now employed. The large part of their day, that was once available for
errands and household matters, is now spent at a workplace. However, the needs
at home still have to be met. In this assignment, the students will learn how
to prioritize and schedule the household tasks.
2. Have the students schedule and
log everything they do for one week. The schedule should be as complete as
possible. A blackline master entitled, Weekly Schedule, has been
included.
3. At the weeks end, the students
will itemize the different activities in which they took part. This should
include activities such as errands, recreation, and personal needs.
4. Each student will then
prioritize the activities in which they took part.
5. The students use their
prioritized list to schedule the upcoming week. The schedule should be
reasonable and should include fun things as well as chores.
6. The students will then
test-drive their schedules.
They will use their schedules for
one week and then reflect upon the process. See the evaluation section for a
list of questions that may be considered when reflecting.
