Work Games is from Susan Traugh’s Daily Living Skills series offering transitional skills and life skills for mild-to-moderately affected special needs students and general education students alike. It is a stand-alone unit providing students with the soft skills to understand the unwritten rules of the workplace including relationships with bosses and co-workers, workplace expectations, avoiding office politics and collaboration.

Like the other books in this series, it contains airy-pages and bullet-point information for easy independent study, yet, these books, nevertheless, respect teens’ maturity and humor while presenting federally mandated transition skills and Indicator 13 skills needed for adult independence.

Written on a 3rd/4th grade level, workbooks are meant to be self-paced and adaptable with student interests and goals driving most units. Each lesson is taught in a short one-to-four page format with follow-up worksheets/activities to check comprehension. Real world activities are provided whenever possible.
