Life Skills at Home 家政

In Taiwan's curriculum, home economics belongs to the learning area called Integrative Activities. In junior high school that area has three subjects: home economics, scouting, and guidance. This series is written for upper elementary and junior high students, and for anyone who wants to learn everyday skills in two languages.
在十二年國教課綱裡，家政屬於「綜合活動」領域；國中階段，這個領域包含家政、童軍、輔導三個科目。這個系列寫給國小高年級到國中的學生，也寫給想用兩種語言學生活技能的每一個人。

Every lesson has a model you can touch, a short reading in English, and two cards you will see every time: eight sentences of everyday English for the kitchen, the laundry, or the store, and one small task to try at home tonight.
每一課都有一個可以動手的模型、一篇英文短文，還有兩張每一課都會出現的卡片：八句在廚房、洗衣間或商店用得到的生活英語，以及一件今天回家就能做的小任務。

All the hands-on cooking in this series uses plant foods: everyone can eat them, and they are the safest to handle, because there is no raw meat to deal with. When a lesson explains official knowledge, such as the food groups or the allergens on a label, it reports it as it is. If you have a food allergy, ask an adult at home and read the label first.
這個系列的實作都用蔬食：人人能吃，也最安全（不必處理生肉）。講到官方的知識（例如食物的分類、標示上的過敏原）時，一律照實介紹。如果你對某些食物過敏，請先問家裡的大人，並且看清楚標示。

Steps that use a knife, a stove, hot oil, bleach, or gas always say so, and they need an adult at home beside you. Every family does things a little differently, so each lesson shows one common way. Ask the people you live with how they do it.
用到刀、火、熱油、漂白水或瓦斯的步驟，課文都會寫明，並且要有家裡的大人在旁邊。每一家的做法都不太一樣，所以每一課介紹的是「一種常見的做法」；也請你回家問問一起住的人，他們是怎麼做的。
