According to my experience,my studeants have always enjoyed stories,movies,plays,songs,role modeling,writing about thier own experiences.
Games and fieldtrips are great ways too but ones which need budget.
Service learning projects like raising money for a charity reason or organizing a sale or planting the school garden are practical experiences which little learners enjoy.But you will always need your administration support and willing to help around and apply the skills inside and outside the classes.

Can we follow the Chinese's proverbs? we'll see: Tell me, I'll forget Show me, I'll remember Involve me, I'll learn not to follow the first part of the proverb not to follow the second part of the proverb But to follow the third part of the proverb, we can integrate the four skills by using activities in collaborative learning.

Each topic gives some room for the teacher to connect it with real life situation. It demands careful planning and what we call 'teachers' skill' to make proper use of what he knows, read, acquired or experienced.  Anyway, no teaching is effective unless it is linked to life skills.

Too much theory is always boring; to make your subjects more lively, make interactive presentations and provide current and live examples (tell personal or your friends experience) to explain the difficult concepts. This will make your subject most interesting and students will remember forever.

Main object of education is to provide  life skills in students, education with out lifeskills is nothing

because they become a civilized person of the state,for example, empathy, sympathy, tolerance, sacrifice, helping, love, respect, etc.

I can recommend the following methods to incorporate life skills in the teaching process:

1) Story-telling, especially if you host professionals to talk about these skills

2) Hands-on experience in the lab (if you are describing a professional skill) or field trips to locations where the skill is deonstrated (work area for example)

3) role-playing: organize the students into groups and have them demonstrate some life skills to their class through acting.

As per experience in the academe for almost a decade, i always start with motivation before delivering the lesson. Give the students examples on how a particular lesson can be used in life or show them success stories of other individual excelling in the same lesson as being discussed always help in bridging the gap between what is taught in the classroom and with how it is used in real life. Integrating life skills into teaching is not only required but a must for students to feel the relevance of their studies.

What you can do is enumerate the life skills and explain how it may be incorporated in teaching.
