Worked well as a cover lesson. A colleague with no background in the topic taught it from the plan alone.
Used the hook on its own as a starter for a different topic and it still worked.
Really well structured. I adapted the warm-up slightly for my group and it worked beautifully. Saved me hours of prep.
Yes! The materials tab has a printable. Look under the practice phase.
The extension is optional in the plan, but I mark it for the students who choose it.
I did the same swap. Saved setup time and students were just as engaged.
