Valoraciones y comentarios
Worked well as a cover lesson. A colleague with no background in the topic taught it from the plan alone.
This is now a staple in my unit. The progression from hook to wrap-up feels natural and easy to follow.
Noted, I will add a timing warning to the description.
Beautifully sequenced. The misconceptions listed in the teacher notes were exactly the ones my class walked in with.
Great question — I ran it with 28 and just added a third station to keep group sizes down. Worked fine.
Please do share the translation, that would help a lot of us.
