Worked well as a cover lesson. A colleague with no background in the topic taught it from the plan alone.
Good to know the hook travels — I will try that.
Is there a printable version of the recording sheet anywhere?
Thanks for sharing this! Bookmarking for next term.
The extension is optional in the plan, but I mark it for the students who choose it.
