We love revisiting and cleaning up older lessons based on teacher feedback. This lesson on Talent is an oldie but a goodie! Try pairing it with our Ellii Poll on Luck. Watch for NEW Discussion Starters lessons coming in 2025!

If I had a million dollars, I would... buy you some banana art. Really? Get your students talking about what makes the ordinary extraordinary with this week's video from The Associated Press. We're curious what your learners think. Is it art? What about this?

What do EMTs do? In this latest Career Pathways lesson, students learn about the duties performed by emergency medical technicians. Students who are drawn to this lesson may be interested in our comprehensive workplace course on this topic.
