What ideas have you got to show that you are able to be independent?:
Here is what Jakob did:
- Jakob didn’t like the food/meals that his parents made for him. He asked them if he could make his own food and they said ‘no’.
- Without arguing, Jakob researched on his ipad and looked around budget-style supermarkets and wrote a list of meals that he’d like to make.
- He then made a list of these and calculated the cost of them, compared to the meals his family often made for him.
- He presented this information using a PowerPoint and shared this information with his family (demonstrating that he actually could save them money and time).
- His family were so impressed that they agreed, and Jakob started making the family a meal once a week. Jakob has a dream of becoming a successful chef and having his own restaurant or café. He also has a passion for learning about healthy nutritious food that supports health.
Can you think of any ideas of things you can do to show you can be responsible and independent?
