<p>Students who have
disabilities often face many difficulties throughout their lives and are not
always given the same opportunities to learn important daily living skills as
their peers. Most research in this area does not account for the need to teach
daily living skills to students with mild disabilities, and instead is focused
on teaching these skills to students with severe disabilities. In this study,
the methods for teaching daily living skills are examined and skills that
should be taught to middle school students with mild disabilities are
discovered. Key findings from this study indicate that there are many daily
living skills that are not being taught to students with mild disabilities,
teachers do not often have the time to teach these skills, and there is a lack
of resources for teaching daily living skills to middle school students with
mild disabilities. The handbook created from this study aims to fill part of
the gap by sharing suitable methods for teaching daily living skills and
providing a checklist of daily living skills to teach to the students.</p>
