Valutazioni e commenti
My students loved the hands-on part. The exit ticket gave me exactly the formative data I needed. Highly recommend.
Glad it was useful. Let me know how the series goes.
Yes! The materials tab has a printable. Look under the practice phase.
Used this with my class last week and it landed perfectly — the pacing is spot on and students stayed engaged the whole time.
That is a fair point about the sourcing — I have listed two substitutes in the materials now.
I did the same swap. Saved setup time and students were just as engaged.
Ran it twice this term with very different groups and it held up both times. That is rare.
Please do share the translation, that would help a lot of us.
Noted, I will add a timing warning to the description.
