Notes et commentaires
How long does the setup actually take? Trying to work out if it fits a single period.
Good to know the hook travels — I will try that.
Noted, I will add a timing warning to the description.
Setup was about ten minutes for me once the materials were out on the bench.
The wrap-up prompt produced the best written responses I have had from this class all year.
The assessment rubric alone was worth it. I have reused it across three other lessons since.
Pairs nicely with the follow-up lesson in the same subject — I taught them back to back.
