Used the hook on its own as a starter for a different topic and it still worked.
Thanks, this is really helpful feedback.
Good to know the hook travels — I will try that.
Beautifully sequenced. The misconceptions listed in the teacher notes were exactly the ones my class walked in with.
Setup was about ten minutes for me once the materials were out on the bench.
I did the same swap. Saved setup time and students were just as engaged.
