Some life skills are included in the curriculum but are never clearly identified. The focus is on communicating and relating with others. Acquiring, analyzing, and using information, problem solving, decisionmaking, etc., can happen but are not expressed. None of the illustrations include people but the curriculum is sensitive to physical and mental abilities. The subject matter provides an opportunity to share knowledge in foods and nutrition.
Guide is well organized and designed.
It is easy to follow. The colors may not appeal to youth. Scoresheet that can be used for practice and competition is included in the curriculum.
