  • Use parts of the resource, such as "The Apple of Our Eye" activity that requires a knife, as demonstrations rather than as hands-on activities
Classroom Considerations

  • Aligned only to TEKS (Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills); no other alignment are given, so be sure to check local and state standards
