Notes et commentaires
The wrap-up prompt produced the best written responses I have had from this class all year.
Worked well as a cover lesson. A colleague with no background in the topic taught it from the plan alone.
Yes! The materials tab has a printable. Look under the practice phase.
Glad it was useful. Let me know how the series goes.
Clear, classroom-ready, and the materials list is accurate. My only tweak was adding a few more minutes to the practice phase.
