  Case: The never ending question
Why do I need to learn this? Ill never use this stuff again?!

We all know that we are bound to get this question.... at least 5 times.
What are some ways we, as teachers, can help relate the classwork to real life problems and situations?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
As many others mentioned, relating classwork to real life can definitely make it more effective. Do research while planning lessons, know your students and what will benefit them. I teach high school ESE students, I have to integrate life skills/work skills into almost every lesson in order to make it beneficial to them.
