I personally have never liked math and with this website i found it has art activites for a math lesson. It incorporates both the left and right brain thinking.

This website focuses on showing educators different health issues to utilize in the classroom. One of the main things that caught my eye was the first link to show up: facts about drugs. Because drugs can be a huge issue in middle and high school kids today, it is important for teachers, especially in the health field, to inform kids on the serious affects that drugs can have on the body. Relating lesson plans to student's lives is key for teachers to break though with students.
