  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!)
Start a "Real - World" Board. On this board put examples of how you use skills you are working on in the real world today. Recipe cards, menus, resumes, ect... Even encourage students to bring in things they find along the way!
