Careful, accurate content — I checked the sources and they hold up. Refreshing for a shared lesson.
The extension is optional in the plan, but I mark it for the students who choose it.
Same here — back-to-back is the way to go.
That is a fair point about the sourcing — I have listed two substitutes in the materials now.
Thanks for sharing this! Bookmarking for next term.
It works fine without the lab kit — I demoed the tricky step at the front and the rest is paper-based.
Yes! The materials tab has a printable. Look under the practice phase.
The timing note says 50 minutes but it took us closer to 65. Worth budgeting the extra.
A year down worked for me with the reading swapped for the summary version.
Please do share the translation, that would help a lot of us.
The assessment rubric alone was worth it. I have reused it across three other lessons since.
