    • Step 1: Give each student 3 sticky notes and a marker.
    • Step 2: Ask them to write down one basic life skill they believe they have mastered (e.g., cooking, budgeting, communication) on each sticky note.
    • Step 3: Once everyone has written their notes, have students come up one by one and place their sticky notes on the whiteboard or flip chart under a heading titled "Our Skills Inventory."
