Valutazioni e commenti
The wrap-up prompt produced the best written responses I have had from this class all year.
Good bones, and the slides are clean enough to project without editing. I trimmed the discussion to fit a 45-minute period.
Not a perfect fit for my curriculum, but adapting it took twenty minutes instead of an evening.
Yes! The materials tab has a printable. Look under the practice phase.
