Notes et commentaires
Clear, classroom-ready, and the materials list is accurate. My only tweak was adding a few more minutes to the practice phase.
The differentiation notes are what sold me — I could stretch the fast finishers without writing anything extra.
Really well structured. I adapted the warm-up slightly for my group and it worked beautifully. Saved me hours of prep.
Same here — back-to-back is the way to go.
Sixty-five minutes matches my experience too. I now split it across two shorter periods.
