Youth relate to life through stories. Stories can teach skills, build self-awareness, increase self-esteem, and provide life lessons. Our world challenges children but no longer requires them to learn through hardship how to become stronger and better. My stories provide models for youth to learn that doing hard things, facing challenges with fortitude, and being kind are strengths. My books offer teachers opportunities to begin conversations about friendship, overcoming challenges, healing from deep hurts, managing emotions, and withstanding negative peer pressure. As teachers are confronted with numerous traumatized students and few support resources, these books are excellent resources.
For the past few years, the teachers in Business and Marketing have been compiling lessons, projects, quizzes, videos, and other resources to share with the BAM family. This course will show you which classes have resources as of today, how to find them, and who to talk to if you have questions. Whether you just started teaching a new course or have been teaching it for years, you'll find some great ideas to incorporate into your classroom.
