Are your transition education and life skills students learning about leisure and recreation activities in the community? The leisure and recreation slideshow helps life skills and transition students learn to plan and prepare for recreation, then use their skills to join in and get the most out of an activity.
 
The leisure and recreation slideshow supports learners who are getting ready for community based or school based recreation activities - things they can do in their leisure time while also building important communication, problem solving and inter-personal skills.
 
The slideshow is great for using in the classroom throughout a recreation unit, or for supporting remote or home based learning where students plan and participate in an activity in their local community.

Why use the recreation slideshow?
It gives your transition and life skills students the skills and knowledge they need to plan their own recreation activities safely and effectively in the future. This is about equipping them with life long skills rather than simply filling in time with a recreation activity chosen by the teacher for the students. The slideshow encourages young people to plan and prepare for recreation, understand why it is important and to see reasons for carefully planning and joining in recreation activities.
