Ratings & comments
Used this with my class last week and it landed perfectly — the pacing is spot on and students stayed engaged the whole time.
Setup was about ten minutes for me once the materials were out on the bench.
Great question — I ran it with 28 and just added a third station to keep group sizes down. Worked fine.
Beautifully sequenced. The misconceptions listed in the teacher notes were exactly the ones my class walked in with.
Good to know the hook travels — I will try that.
The differentiation notes are what sold me — I could stretch the fast finishers without writing anything extra.
Clear, classroom-ready, and the materials list is accurate. My only tweak was adding a few more minutes to the practice phase.
The extension is optional in the plan, but I mark it for the students who choose it.
