What It's Important
Have you ever heard students ask, “Why do we need to learn this?” or exclaim, “I don’t care about this!” Without seeing the relevance or importance of an issue, students may see it as just something to learn for the test. In this activity, students explore and write about the importance or personal relevance of the issue at hand.
