Family & Consumer Sciences is already interactive and engaging. The challenge with students is when unit objectives that are not hands on are taught, and students begin to dis-engage. In this session, participants will learn how to use different lesson plan activities for various family & consumer sciences courses. Materials will include how to implement and use project-based assessments, warm-up activities, technology platforms, group activities, and class assignments which promote student engagment.
Participants will be able to leave with lesson plan resources to be able to use with their students and teachers in their department. Materials are adaptable to be used for various courses under the CTE umbrella.
