As a first-year teacher of the course, I was looking for something that would be engaging for my students. My students are really enjoying the activities and are asking more questions which leads to greater discussion. I highly recommend!" ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Heather C. said, "This resource is FANTASTIC. I am super excited to give this entire course a go in the spring. Be aware that this is a lot of material, so it may take a little bit to digest it all. Once you know where to look for the materials, it gets easier to put together. I'm currently in the process of putting a teacher notebook together so that I have something to show the kids, and I cannot be any more pleased with the quality and content included in this bundle. I no longer am nervous to teach this course as putting this together makes me feel much more confident (and competent) to successfully teach Sociology."
