What educators are saying
Very engaging resources, well-planned, and in-depth. I did have to modify somewhat for my ELs, but that is to be expected. I appreciated the thought, time, and effort that went into creating this resource, and I wish more students had a chance to read and think about food justice.
This resource is so versatile and in-depth. For many of my students, this was eye-opening regarding an issue that affects us all indirectly. I appreciate the quality of the assignments and the gathering of resources.
