We work with professional curriculum writers to ensure classroom materials are relevant and meet appropriate grade level national education standards. The lesson plans are best used along with the corresponding full length episodes and shorter classroom curriculum videos noted in each lesson plan. The lesson plans provide students with real-world applications so they can connect learning with their every day lives.
