**********************************
This resource is also included in Google Slides! Text boxes have already been created to make it easier for you and your students! Each slide includes two instruction solution tabs for when students accidentally delete text boxes and when they want to zoom in (to enlarge worksheets). It's super helpful for students who are not that familiar with how to use Google Slides or need the extra assistance.
*********************************
Peer pressure is real and all too common! Teens constantly experience all kinds of peer pressure both in and out of school. Peer pressure can ultimately affect teens' decision-making, behaviors, attitudes, and outlook on life. It's often hard to navigate difficult situations and say no, especially when there is a strong human need to fit in and feel important.
This resource focuses on negative peer pressure, providing opportunities for teachers, educators, counselors, and parents to:
★ help students make better decisions when it comes to awkward or difficult situations
★ help students say "no" when they have to
★ help students set and communicate social boundaries
★ help students consider the possible consequences of choices
★ help students build confidence
Additionally, these scenarios allow opportunities for you to teach your students exit strategies or ways to say "no" to negative pressures. Together, you can think through strategies on how to deal with those scenarios if they arise. This can even be done by discussing the scenarios and role-playing. It is helpful to think about these things ahead of time rather than dealing with situations as they occur or trying to recover after they happen.
The scenarios encourage students to think about and practice how to:
This resource features (and is centered around) 48 REAL-LIFE, peer pressure scenarios/situations that teens and young adults experience daily in school and out of school. Students read the scenarios and write, discuss, or create role-plays/skits on how to maturely handle peer pressure in these situations.

✅ TASK CARDS
This resource includes 48 Peer Pressure Scenario Task Cards that come in the following variations:
The Scenario Task Cards can be used as part of a larger lesson, in guided small groups, whole-class discussions, partner discussion before sharing out with the larger group or class, or even one-on-one with a teacher, guidance counselor, or parent/guardian! These two different Task Cards variations contain the same scenarios. You can print the Task Cards out on gloss paper or regular paper and laminate. You may also organize them in a binder ring.
********************************************
✅ SCENARIO WORKSHEETS (Print and Digital)
This resource also includes 48 WORKSHEETS with lines, so students can write their responses. The worksheets include the same scenarios in the Task Cards.
These worksheets are great for “Quick Writes,” Do Now activities, Note-Taking/Reflection periods, Formative Assessments, or can simply be used as part of a larger lesson or discussion! They include breath-taking borders, fonts, and clip arts by other contributing artists.
********************************************
✅ LIST of Peer Pressure Scenarios
Also included is a LIST OF SCENARIOS to allow easier access for teachers to read and select scenarios to work with. It’s like an overview page of the scenarios listed in the Task Cards!

Finding The Number Of Solutions BTC Thin Slicing Lesson | Grade 8 Math
By EZMath
This lesson has everything you need to teach a "Thin Slicing" lesson on determining if a linear equation has one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions (8.EE.7a) for 8th grade using the Building Thinking Classrooms strategies for teaching math created by Peter Liljedahl. If you have been looking to implement the Building Thinking Classrooms model of instruction, but don't know where to start, this is a great resource for you.
This lesson includes the following materials:
This lesson will help your students learn how to determine if a linear equation has one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solution. This lesson starts with a very low floor to encourage access for all students, and builds up the rigor in "thin slices" until it reaches a high ceiling with challenging extension questions. Once complete, students can use the provided notes template to record their thinking, as well as a "Check Your Understanding" exit ticket to give you and your students formative assessment feedback on how they are understanding the topic.
This lesson is the 3rd in a series for 8th grade equation solving. The two previous lessons are:
1. Solving Equations "Thin Slicing" Lesson: Grade 8
2. Equations With Variables On Both Sides "Thin Slicing" Lesson: Grade 8
Please consider using the previous two lessons before trying this one.
If you enjoy this product, please leave a review and check out my other products. I will be adding more Thin Slicing lessons in the future based on this model.
If you would like to know more about how I use Building Thinking Classrooms in my own class, check out my blog. I am also creating and refining more thin slicing lessons, so follow my store or check back regularly to see what's new.
