Erin C said, “So much flexibility and ideas with this lesson. Can tie into several content areas or as a part of social skills lessons. I am teaching 8th grade and this is appropriate for them. There are also options included that would work well for all grade levels, both upper elementary and even high school.” March 26, 2018
