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.
Please do share the translation, that would help a lot of us.
I did the same swap. Saved setup time and students were just as engaged.
My students loved the hands-on part. The exit ticket gave me exactly the formative data I needed. Highly recommend.
That is a fair point about the sourcing — I have listed two substitutes in the materials now.
Quick note: I swapped the video for a live demo and it worked just as well if you don't have a projector.
Yes! The materials tab has a printable. Look under the practice phase.
Totally agree, the wrap-up is the strongest part.
Good to know the hook travels — I will try that.
