What educators are saying

I used this as an attention getter for my lesson on Fad Diets. I printed each slide and had the students do a card sort, then report back about each topic.
This was very visually appealing and my students really dive into the different Fad Diets throughout history. It brought up some very good discussion points. Super easy to use and student-friendly.
