Bullies have been around forever…there seems to be at least one in every class! So, if you find yourself in need of resources to teach about bullying, then check out the “Bullying: Ideas for Teaching” to help you pull together a quick lesson or more in depth unit on the subject. As always, if you have additional ideas that you’re willing to share, please send them to me via website email or Facebook messaging and I’ll add them to the list.
Did you know there are six types of picky eaters? I think we’ve all been exposed to at least one of them in our classrooms, especially when trying foods prepared in
the lab! So, what’s a parent to do when they have a picky eater? This Picky Eaters lesson has student groups exploring the six types and perform skits as they present the information on why it occurs and what parents can do.
Being randomly assigned a college roommate is akin to opening a box of chocolates! To quote Forrest Gump, “You never know what you’re gonna get!” I like to “try” to prepare my students for this because it can make or break their college experience. The saying that “you really don’t know someone until you live with them” is completely true. I was fortunate in my college experience to have great roommates, whom I got along well with, but not everyone is so lucky! This lesson tries to prepare them for the various types of “roomies” they could encounter and how to deal with each in a constructive way.
