What does the RESEARCH say about KinderLifeSkills?
In the day and age of increased academic competence in children from preschool age through high school, there also seems to be a decrease in the emphasis on life skills. All too often we read article after article to support the fact that there is an extremely high need in providing students with the life skills they so desperately need to be successful in today’s society. Currently education identifies core curricula as language arts, math, science, and social studies. However, Dr. Spencer Kagan, a world renowned author and keynote speaker in the fields of both education and psychology, points out that life skills are just as important in an educational setting as the other core curricula and should be treated as such. Dr. Kagan (2003) points out that compared to previous generations, students today come to school lacking many basic life skills, including social, emotional, organizational and citizenship skills. Although there are many factors that have contributed to this decline, he points out that once these students grow up, they will need these skills in a work force that is now placing a greater emphasis on teamwork and interdependence. Dr. Kagan’s resolution to this crisis is for students to be exposed to a comprehensive life skills curriculum that will address these deficits.
