When teaching about dating, healthy relationships and behaviors, it’s important to include a lesson on breaking up. Why? Because there are some guidelines to breaking up correctly and I’ve seen way too many teens break up in disrespectful ways.

So, if you have any “Swiftie fans” in your class, this will surely get their attention!
The Pop Culture Baking Mix Project was inspired by the Bridgerton Baking Mixes offered from Betty Crocker! I thought it was such a cool idea and thought of a ton of television and movies that teens might be inspired to create baking mixes for that I created this project for use in many classes from foods to marketing. So, have a look and hope you’re inspired as well!

Wishing you a season of joy, a holiday full of love, and a New Year brimming with possibilities!
I’ve read recently that there is now some controversy associated with these two infant sleeping practices. So what better way to get students to learn about what’s going on and then make their own decisions is to have them complete the Swaddling Blankets vs Sleep Sacks Investigation! This is a great stand alone assignment when teaching about infants, but it can also serve as a great sub plan when you have to be out!
